Naughty Professor is a forward thinking music endeavor pioneered by six young musicians from around the country, now anchored in New Orleans, Louisiana. Formed in 2011, the band's mission was to embody the jazz-influenced party culture of the Big Easy in a constantly evolving, high energy funk/soul outfit. Naughty Professors' live performances, which weave together complex compositions and loose individual improvisation, quickly commanded the attention of many notable musicians in town, including George Porter Jr., Galactic, and The Revivalists. With fresh recorded material in the works and a rigorous tour schedule planned for 2015 and beyond, Naughty Professor is poised to soon become the next household name associated with the echelon of New Orleans music.
Naughty Professor has shared the stage with artists such as Galactic, Snarky Puppy, Victor Wooten, Rebirth Brass Band, Fitz and the Tantrums, The Revivalists, Big Sam's Funky Nation, Papadosio, George Porter Jr., The Soul Rebels, and many more
The Brand New Opiates: http://www.facebook.com/TheBrandNewOpiates
The band began as a casual group of musicians getting together once a week to jam at the popular open mic at Yeoman's Road Pub, culminating in the collective.
The Brand New Opiates featuring current and former members of Tampa bands* *Swamp Logic, *The Candy Bars, *RockSteady @ 8 and *Ego Mainline. As a 5 piece, the band often includes additional musical flavors from a wealth of local, well-known musicians to their shows and recordings. It's not unusual to hear violas, banjos, cellos, keyboards and blues harp at any given night making every show fresh and unique!
The band derives it's eclectic, original sound from a wealth of influences ranging from Tom Waits to the Cramps, T-Bone Burnett to Velvet Underground or Dr.John to Gogol Bordello.
Since it's inception on February 2013, The Brand New Opiates have played many shows including WMNF's 'Sympathy for the Devil', a tribute to Mick Jagger at the State Theater. They've also supported such local giants as Poetry 'N Lotion, Magadog, Nervous Turkey, The Apes and 6 Volt Rodeo creating a "buzz" in the local scene and gaining new fans with every show!
