Aurgasm@Bumbershoot: Day One

Bumbershoot

Dyno Jamz
A funky hip-hop 8 members Seattle based ensemble was the highlight of the morning. Their lively horn lines, cleverly phrased rap lyrics and overall soulful vibe makes this act worth to keep an eye on as they’re starting to record their first studio album.

Mayer Hawthorne & the County
Mayer Hawthorne mixes funky catchy old school soul with a post-modern nerd chic. Producer, multi-instrumentalist and singer, Mayer recently released a new album and is currently touring the country. Recommended to Jamie Lidell advocates.

Matt & Kim
Bursting with energy, Brooklyn duo Matt & Kim certainly did not disappoint. The crowd went wild and crazy when they finished the show with Aurgasm’s favourite track “Daylight”.

A note from Yoav (our photographer): Young bands out there, take a good lesson from Matt & Kim on how to give a show and love your audience. And remember, boys and girls, Aurgasm was there first!

    Sorry moi, we’ll try to get more audio for these posts.

    We’ve just added a video to this post, and we’ll do that for the forthcoming content. We’ll also make sure all artists we mention are linked up to their myspace or whatever so you can listen there.

    It’s also likely we’ll do a followup with one or more of these artists afterward, and we can share some MP3s once we get proper permission to do so. :)

    When I heard the first part of “Just Ain’t Gonna Work Out” I was just waiting for someone to chant “Can I kick it? Yes you can”.

    dyno is sub-par version of the roots. and i have seen mayer hawthorne before…reeeeeal nice guy, but i thought his songs didn’t transfer that well live (note: it could have been the venue and sound). however, his bassist is THE MAN.

    Yea, his bass player is the man indeed

    Is it my imagination, or does Kim look a bit like Iggy Pop while she’s in the raw?

    Matt’s vocal color and delivery put me in mind of Dave Kusworth (think “Kings and Queens”-vintage Jacobites…) Excellent timewarp experience!
