Future Soul feat acclaimed artist, producer and DJ Erik Rico live plus DJs Barry King, Gordon West, Hewan Clarke and Irfan Rainy until 3am
Soul, nu jazz and broken beat producer and artist Erik Rico has worked with some of the biggest names out there including Tupac Shakur, Qtip (Tribe called quest), Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets/Grammy award winner), Planet Asia, Mystic and Pharcyde Carmen Rizzo (Grammy award winner). With regular DJ sets for Hollywood’s A-list celebrity crowd, and his own LifeNotes music receiving major attention, we’re delighted to bring this great live artist to Band on the Wall for a full live set. DJ support also reads like a who’s who of the modern soul and nu jazz scene so see you down here for what promises to be a massive night!
“I have reviewed the music of USA singer songwriter Erik Rico, interviewed him in our magazine and on our radio show as well as witnessing him live…. and he is an ultimate one man band phenomenon. He plays keyboards,dj’s,sings and performs with the energy of a creative and spiritual nature. Combining the old fusion of jazz funk and soul legacies with new school technology Erik’s awesome future soul sound has some serious zap like Roger Troutman. His soul sonic foundation cattails a smidgen of Stevie Wonder,Prince James Brown and Marvin Gaye influences all morphed into one explosive and cyclonic musical embryo, just waiting to unleash the dragon like a Bruce Lee half inch punch..its that”devastatingly good”. Not to be missed like blinking during a Mohammed Ali shuffle..The future of soul is coming in on the transatlantic music express!!”
