LONDON STREET (Neosoul, R&B, Funk)
W/ GUEST DJ

Bringing you FREE live music during Happy Hour (5-9), SHOWNUFF is happy to present LONDON STREET, laying down a smooth mix of neosoul, R&B and funk for your boogie-get-down enjoyment. Mostly influenced by old school R&B and influenced by groups like Earth, Wind and Fire, Prince and The Roots; London Street brings something completely unique to the table. Guest DJ.

When it comes to the bass, Jenn Curiel has a style all her own. Smooth and rhythmic, she never skips a beat. Growing up in Los Angeles, she studied the baritone horn for several years before deciding to switch to the bass guitar. Her musical roots stem from bass legend Verdeen White and his groundbreaking group Earth, Wind and Fire. Similar to Verdeen, Jenn designs unique and distinctive bass lines that compliment the melody.

Lesley Grant brings sweet and sultry vocals to this great ensemble. Growing up in Georgia, she was raised on contemporary gospel music. Singing in church functions with her family from age 6, her voice developed amongst a community of spirit-filled singers. She learned how the power of harmony, and the strength of melody can charm a listener. Her influences are imbedded in soul music and unique lyricists, and range from the late, great Donny Hathaway to Ani DiFranco.

Forming in San Francisco eight years ago, London Street has enjoyed many successes. They have performed in such highly esteemed San Francisco venues as the Great American Music Hall, Slim’s, The Elbo Room, Rasselas Jazz Club, and many others. In addition, they have captivated large crowds at great festivals like The Haight Street Fair, Bay To Breakers, SF Pride Festival, and High Sierra Music Festival and the Slow Food Music Festival. They have toured the West Coast from Washington to San Diego, and internationally with reknowned acts such as india.arie, Angie Stone, Eric Sardinas , Sistas in the Pit, and the Kofy Brown Band at the Blue Balls Festival in Lucern, Switzerland.  Most recently, London Street took their soulful sounds to the island of Maui in Hawaii.

Locally, they’ve opened for great acts such as John Legend and Ozomatli. London Street is also building their soulful reputation by playing the Poster Room Lounge inside the famous Fillmore Auditorium while major acts like Erykah Badu, Musiq Soulchild, Raphael Saadiq, and the Roots, take the main stage. London Street has received critical acclaim with the release of their debut album, “Life Through Lyric and Melody.”

The girls are currently in the studio working on their follow-up album, “FutuReality.” London Street is taking it to the next level with this album. Sure to be a hit! London Street is building a reputation based on a solid, energetic, and heartfelt live performance. Their fierce and inspiring original songs draw their influences from seventies R&B and Funk, and are able to lift the spirits of any audience. The power of music has joined the creative zeal of these three ladies for an expressive look at life through lyric and melody. Passion Power Poetry.

Wicked Mercies are a soul band from San Francisco. The line-up features vocals that embody the classic sound of all great female –fronted soul acts through out time. The band is made up of players with roots in soul, R&B, funk and punk. The band takes a stripped down, un-pretentious approach to the music, grabbing a hold of the grooves and driving them into the sound. Wicked Mercies have received local and international airplay including critical acclaim from the Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show BBC6 music London.

Wicked Mercies – The Church of Soul

Wicked Mercies is a funky soul band. Listening to them gives me a goofy smile as I raise my hands in the air and sporadically scream, Oh Yeah, to the dismay of my neighbors.

Does life have you down? Are you depressed? Flick your Prozac down the drain and just put Wicked Mercies on continuous play. Shake it proud.

They are The Supremes for 2010. Addie, Nahid and Nancy front the group with their powerful energy and vocals. The band backs them with their soul and funk fusion. A perfect accompaniment.

LONDON STREET (Neosoul, R&B, Funk)
CHRIS ORR
DJ PHLECK

London Street is bringing live instrumentation and creative songwriting back to Soul and R&B. You won’t find redundant ballads or robotic beats in their music. London Street is an actual band that writes songs from the heart. A refreshing take on Neo-soul… These ladies are an amazingly tight and sweet unit.

Shani leads from the rear, riding and maintaining a tight, strong groove.  Originally from Los Angeles, she has been playing music her entire life. Starting out on clarinet at age seven, she’s played a variety of instruments before finding her calling on the drums. Most influenced by old school R&B, and the legendary artist Prince, Shani produces a powerful foundation, which allows London Street to build upon with ease.
