Look what I’ve found: Stony & Hemp Videos
Recently I’ve found some video gems of me with a bluesy funk band called Stony & Hemp…upon my search I’ve found a video list called Stony and Hemp Live w/ Camisha HOW AWESOME IS THAT!!! Thanks to the fan(s) that have compiled a nice collection. From past blog entries in 2012 these videos can follow past gigs from Berryhill, Jailhouse Saloon, Dan Electros, and The Big Easy just to name a few…

The C.I.T.Y. Auditions on the Urban Television Network
Earlier today The C.I.T.Y. reconvened for a talent audition on the Urban Television Network (HOU:TX). Consisting of:
•Drums
•keys
•bass
•guitar
•trombone
•saxophone
•vocals (mics, speaker)
Our bodies and equipment occupied much of the tiny space allotted for this brief audition BUT being over prepared has its perks. The judges and company weren’t prepared for our artistic and physical capacity but were astounded by our performance and ease of adjustment. More to come in the future so stay tuned.
Check out some footage
Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2
I have a new baby!!!! amp that is.
Between MarkBass, Gallien-Kruger MB series, Ampeg’s PF series, etc. I’m glad to have finally buckled down on a notable brand delivering a mad obese sound in such a bulimic package (too vulgar eh?). Especially for the cab Got a Genz Benz shuttle 9.2 is a perfect pairing companion. 900 watts at 4 ohms and much more to offer, this four pounder is gonna fit nicely in my purse!

First Fridays with The C.I.T.Y.
Jazz jam at Phil & Derek’s
This was no typical Monday night. No Dulché rehearsal and working out is scheduled some other time. So what am I to do this Monday night? I guess what I used to do-check out the Monday night jazz jam. Formerly at Smitty’s sports bar, Phil & Derek’s wine bar and bistro (I bet) provides the ideal environment for this straight ahead genre. Usually I take the dimness to my advantage as I would aim to be anonymous but since the hot reception from Friday’s gig with Matthew Funches I couldn’t be incognito anymore (thanks a lot!). I was chatting it up to the wee hours of the morning with fellow musicians and such. Good times, til next time hopefully soon.
“Hair of the Dawg” party
Last night Davi J and the Truth started off the 3rd annual “hair of the dawg” party. Following our early performance the Bourbon St. Band changed the atmosphere from Motown soul to that good ole New Orleans sound that moved everyone to passé around…and the alcohol helped a little too.

Gig with Matthew Funches
Last night Matthew Funches trio jammed at Phil & Derek’s wine bar in Houston,TX. A mélange of sorts, reggae, jazz, R&B with a panache of rock warmed the room on this cold night.

Bandtasticfour album: my part is done
My part of recording Trillmatic is over! After two studio sessions 10-11 tracks have been covered. I missed part of the scratch rap and guitar sessions but I was glad to cut a song with the guitar today.
NYE at the Luke
A new mixing board. A new bass amp. A new sound to rip through the sanctuary.
