New To Horn Driven Radio...Tacoma Washington's "Bump Kitchen"

Added to our rotation last week are three songs from the Tacoma Washington based band "Bump Kitchen". We are currently playling the songs "Big Ol' Bones","I Told You So", and "Who Ordered the Waffle?" from Bump Kitchen's CD " Live at Yale". Here's a review of the band:


“… Lucky for us, while other groove merchants have headed straight for the cover band circuit, Bump Kitchen has also been here keeping Grit City’s booties shakin’ with original funk jams. Bump Kitchen shows are known for intense energy and Harper’s rich, soulful vocals. But personally, my favorite part of the band’s set is when the Bittler runs through the crowd during a frenzied keytar solo. Really, the keytar deserves a revival on par with the whole cowbell comeback from a few years back. Are you with me, people? Maybe not. But I’m not the only one with a fever for more keytar. “When he jumps off and Tony jumps offstage, those cats become unglued,” James said. “The crowd loves it. The women love it, the guys love it. It’s just a great time.”

For the Fans of Greg Adams and East Bay Soul!

For the Fans of Greg Adams and East Bay Soul!


Greg is at kickstater.com right now and has less that 28 days to reach his goal of $25,000 to make a the new CD East Bay Soul 2.0.

There is NO major record label, NO suits and No one but you and the music you love. Greg is using Kickstarter to create something that gives back to you!

Here is the link to the fund raising platform at kickstarter.com. $9,320 pledged so far and at 37% of the $25,000 goal that has to be reached in 28 days on Aug 10th at 4.56PM PST.

A message form Greg:

Hello All!

I am hoping that you'll join me at kickstarter to make a pledge, and if you can, spread the word to your circle of friends that would be great. I need all the support I can gather.

The money is going towards the recording studio, engineer, mixing, mastering. the musicians, artwork and CD manufacturing. I am pretty fast in the studio. I am writing now and will have 10 original songs to go into the studio with. I have something to say now, more than ever. I have made 3 CDs on my own and have come as far I can. I am planning for a fall release or early January if we are successful at Kickstarter. No pledge is too small!!

At kickstarter if you do not reach the money goal set, the project does not get funded and all the money pledged goes away. No one gets charged. It's an all or nothing deal!

If we go over our goal, we get to keep the additional funds towards making the CD even better! Maybe add real string players and even promotion, i.e radio and print ads.

Thanks checking out what I am doing at kickstarter.com. I want to make a CD with you and some history too!

Soulfully yours,

Greg and East Bay Soul
