SKINS-N-TINS PROUDLY PRESENTS A DRUM CLINIC WITH STANTON MOORE!

Born and raised in New Orleans, Stanton Moore is a dedicated drummer and performer especially connected to the city, its culture and collaborative spirit. Driven and inspired by the thriving music scene of his hometown which includes such greats as Professor Longhair, Doctor John and The Meters, Moore’s name is now mentioned amongst these Big Easy mainstays.

In the early ‘90s, Moore helped found the New Orleans-based essential funk band Galactic. Their first album, 1996’s widely acclaimed Coolin’ Off, led to an intense tour schedule of nearly 200 gigs a year for the next ten years. Building on their fan base by adding an esteemed list of all-star collaborations to the six albums that followed, Galactic continues to amass a worldwide audience via recording and touring globally.

Moore launched his solo career in 1998 aided by eight-string guitar virtuoso Charlie Hunter and saxophonist Skerik (Les Claypool, John Scofield, Roger Waters). The group recorded All Kooked Out! featuring a handful of local New Orleans musicians as well.

The Tossers

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010 @ 9:00 PM
Cover: $12.00 IN ADVANCE (ONLINE ONLY) AND AT THE DOOR
Category: Live Music

Doors Open 8:00pm
The Night Brigade 9:00pm
The Tossers 10:00pm



Although their name may be irreverent, their music certainly is not. The heart of their distinct sound is derived through the melding of traditional Irish and Punk Rock roots. Combining traditional instrumentation of mandolin, fiddle, tin whistle and banjo with amphetamine-fueled guitar, bass and drums, the Tossers play with a furious edge that teeters between rage and raucousness. With over 15 years of the music grind behind them, the Tossers are a staple in the Celtic Punk and Folk scenes.

Currently the band has six full-length albums, the newest of which is "On A Fine Spring Evening" their third release on Victory Records. While their live shows are fueled with a little bit of blood and sweat and a whole lot of whiskey and beer, their albums are dedicated to musical elegance and provocation. Possessing the ability to masterfully employ stark tempo changes from the brink of the insane to the solemness of an Irish ballad, the Tossers are an act that does not disappoint in print or in person.
