Waiting For My... by urbalt

MUTHAWIT
There's a difference between being immersed in music and getting lost in it. If the former is protective and predictable, the latter revels in chance and the unexpected. MuthaWit? Definitely the latter.

 

MuthaWit is a furiously evolving multi-cultural outfit whose musical performances marry a soulful rock dynamic with free jazz experimentation, classical sensitivity and avant-garde electronics/visuals. Established by award-winning nomadic composer, designer, filmmaker and URB ALT founder Boston Fielder, members of MuthaWit's 5-24 piece orchestra have worked with Parliament/Funkadelic, Sting, TV On The Radio, Curtis Mayfield, The Family Stand, Olu Dara, Herbie Hancock, Jay Z and Organized Noize among others. MuthaWit has been instrumental in the production of the increasingly popular URB ALT Festival annually based in NYC. Focused as the "house band" for performing national solo artists on the bill as well as a stand-alone musical outfit, MuthaWit has embedded its sonic imprint in URB ALT's eclectic music/film events for the 3 years of festival's existence as well as the 9 years of the ongoing URB ALT showcase.


Rejoicing in the intensity of their eclectic musical testimony, MuthaWit lures the listener through an artistic experience that is wildly entertaining and sonically provocative.

I ain't too particular bout press releases.  There's distortion and then there's the truth.  Who cares where you come from when you're still busy coming?  I like to let my imagination run backwards down the interstate of my mind when I'm listening to music.  Don't like to be lead.  No.  I don't.

Hola, Loved Ones

 

If you are Democrat, Republican, Independent or apolitical.  Please watch this video.  Very seldom except for in movies or perhaps athletics on television do we see someone lose their composure and say something absolutely NECESSARY yet that is clearly not "proper" media etiquette for public discourse.  That conservative approach to speaking truth in the mainstream is what has brought us scripted reality televsion where even the anger is timed and cut.  Dylan…

Jacob, Jobs and Occupying Wallstreet: What Was That?

Posted on October 9, 2011 at 6:00pm 2 Comments

Hola, Loved Ones!

A few minutes ago I was playing some music off of the next MuthaWit album(RAWK!) and my nephew, Jacob(above), excitedly shouted "What was that?"  I've been blessed to be a part of his life for the last 7 or 8 years.  I've always been amazed at how smart and…

Hola, Loved Ones!

One of my friends, Carol Marie Webster, from back in the day was a dancer.  She's really the person who pushed me to get into performing when I was perfectly content being a recording studio rat.  Carol studied in the Horton-Limon and Haitian dance techniques.  She was a principal dancer with Urban…
