Arrested Development and Ska-kings The Beat to play in Dubai

1329433247 19 Arrested Development and Ska kings The Beat to play in Dubai

A music-lover living in UAE these days could be excused for feeling as though the concert offerings were in a time warp.

These include performances by artists from the 1980s and 1990s – Duran Duran, Culture Club and Sade – as well as fun yet tacky live shows by the likes of Yanni and Salt-N-Pepa.

Thursday night is no exception, with the double headlining performances of the American hip-hop group Arrested Development and the UK Ska-kings The Beat.

Both previously toured Dubai separately, but putting them together on one bill could make for a joyful exploration of recent musical history by two sets of underrated artists.

For Atlanta’s Arrested Development, their short-lived commercial peak is an example of hip-hop’s rapid growth from independent roots to the mainstream.

Formed in 1988, the group confounded expectation by their mere formation – viewing themselves more as a commune rather than a hip-hop crew. While musical compatriots relied on a DJ for musical direction, Arrested Development had an elderly spiritual leader, Baba Oje, dispensing spiritual advice as well as performing a few nifty Tai Chi-esque dance moves on stage.

The group’s MC, Speech, admitted their image was a tough sell even in a late 1980s hip-hop scene where diversity was the norm; through record-label marketing and public curiosity the group were labelled as hip-hop’s first hippie group to gather appeal.

Speech says he is slightly uncomfortable with the tag.

“We weren’t really hippies,” he says. “We were activists and we were about the Earth and things your average urban hip-hop were not talking about. When you get into the mainstream stratosphere, especially when you are bringing something unique and fresh, off-course labels are always thrown on non-mainstream concepts to make it more easy to swallow.”

It was the eclectic songwriting of their 1992 debut effort 3 Years, 5 Months & 2 Days in the Life Of… (named after the period it took the group to get signed by a label) that the masses devoured.

With socially conscious lyricism and styles blending hip-hop, Afro Beat and pop, the album went on to sell more than three million copies and nab two Grammy Awards for Best New Artist and Best Rap Group.

While Speech modestly labels the success as “luck”, the good fortune seemingly turned on its head when they released the follow-up Zingalamaduni two years later.

The album is another solid progression, incorporating more jazzy elements, but by then it fell on mostly deaf ears. Gangster rap had become the dominant flavour and songs about social empowerment were pushed aside by radios and television for bouncy tales of gun play.

Speech admits the disappointing reception to Zingalamaduni caused the group to split in 1996 before reforming in 2000.

While the reformation continues to be met enthusiastically with tours including Australia, Europe and the Middle East, the group returned to the headlines in 2003 by suing the television company Fox Network for infringement over the name of one of the biggest cult comedies Arrested Development, a name Speech claims the group trademarked in 1992.

Describing the show as “kind of all right”, Speech was adamant the group would have used all means to cancel the series, which, because of fan demand, is reportedly due to become a feature film, if the matter wasn’t settled out of court.

“We had to,” he says. “We had other examples of the past, where shows with the same [name] pretty much took the band and killed it.”

For The Beat’s frontman Ranking Roger, the group’s reformation since 2005 has led to a comfortable existence.

Presently unsigned, their DIY approach has resulted in a new creative spell of songwriting. He proudly declares the new material, to be released in the near future, resembles the group’s vintage sound, where reggae and punk are blended with ska beats.

Roger explains the group’s mix-and-match approach is a product of their environment.

“England has always been a great melting pot,” he says.

“By mixing reggae and punk we helped make punk become more accessible in a new reggae style. We sing about world situations. It is good awareness music.”

Rogers says 2012 is destined to become a big year for The Beat, with the band’s back catalogue set for re-release.

While proud of the group’s three albums, Rogers says it is at celebratory live shows that one can best appreciate their eclectic songwriting approach.

“We want people to join in and basically be part of the band,” he says. “I would say 98 per cent of people would leave the place feeling like they had a bit of a workout.”

  • Arrested Development and The Beat will play on Thursday at Dubai’s Chi Garden, beside Al Nasr Leisure Land at Oud Metha. Tickets start at Dh150 from timeouttickets.com

Shine hoping to benefit from arrangement with landlord, low menu prices

1328890637 92 Shine hoping to benefit from arrangement with landlord, low menu prices

It’s hard to follow a really good act — just ask poor Brian Griese, who had to follow John Elway as Denver Broncos quarterback. But often it’s just as hard to follow unsuccessful acts, a task Boulder restaurateurs the Emich triplets will undertake as they open Shine Restaurant and Gathering Place.

Shine will separate itself from past occupants in a few ways, says co-founder Jill Emich, who along with sisters Jennifer and Jessica hopes to build on the success of former Boulder restaurant Trilogy.

Most notably, Shine will benefit from a strong working relationship with landlord Stephen Tebo, founder and owner of Tebo Development, which owns the property. 

“We’ve worked with him in the past and he was very willing to work with us on what we can do in that space,” she says. “We said, ‘This is what we can do numbers-wise,’ and he worked with us on that.”

Emich also acknowledged that the cost of rent most likely contributed to previous occupants’ financial issues.  The eatery’s location, 2027 13th St., has changed hands at least 5 times since 2009, becoming RedFish then Colorado Brewing Company then Boulder Draft House then Los Oasis, which closed in September.

Along with more affordable costs, Shine will have a lower-priced menu than many dining options in Boulder, she says, and it’ll feature live music and a unique layout that eliminates the open, warehouse-like feel in favor of several rooms.

In the back, Shine will host live music and dancing, Jill Emich says, with an emphasis on the flexibility of the space.

“The space is very versatile. It’s gonna be live music, private events, private parties, all kinds of stuff,” she says. “The stage is being custom built so we can move it around and have more room for dancing, and if it’s a bigger band we can accommodate that.”

Jill Emich says Shine will host local bands often, as she says the city needs a venue to promote and give exposure to Boulder-area musicians.

“I feel like because there’s so many great local bands to choose from, it won’t be too difficult,” she says. “My main goal is to support local artists because I feel like there’s not enough places for them to play. At the Fox [Theatre] and the Boulder Theater, it’s hard for local artists to get on the bill.”

She says the venue plans to host a wide variety of music. Given the intimacy of the space — it can fit about 80 people with tables and more when the tables are removed, she says — they will host single artists, but intend to go beyond singer-songwriters.

“We’ll definitely do the acoustic singer-songwriter type thing, but also have Brazilian music, salsa, reggae — it’ll be pretty versatile,” she says.

No acts are booked yet, she says. But the sisters, 37, have made decisions on Shine’s menu, which Jill Emich describes as “nutritionally-inspired American comfort food that’s affordable.”

“The food is going to be local and organic, which a lot of people in town are doing,” she says. “We’re going to bring a nutritional component in. We’re going to have nutrition classes.”

Jill Emich says her sister Jessica, a nutritionist, will help customers understand the health benefits their food will provide.

Shine’s liquids will range from house-made juices and elixirs to beer brewed on-site. Jill Emich says the sisters aren’t ready to announce whether the beer will be brewed in conjunction with an existing brewery or developed in-house.

Shine plans to open near the beginning of December for lunch, happy hour and dinner, Jill Emich says. She estimates dinner entrees will cost between $9 and $15 and lunch $10 and under.

Strength to survive

If your idea of a perfect afternoon is drinking a Miller Lite and playing a little hacky sack while jamming to a Dave Matthews Band cover of Bob Marley’s “Stir It Up,” you might enjoy “Strength to Survive,” the latest album from NoVa reggae group Soldiers of Jah Army, or SOJA. And if that scenario just made you gag a little bit, you may very well still enjoy the album.

Dave Matthews Band. But according to lead singer/guitarist Jacob Hemphill, the primary inspiration was not Matthews, but Bob Marley and his 1979 album “Survival.” “Strength to Survive” bears the mark of both influences: The album is a likable mix of traditional roots reggae broken down for the casual listener and party reggae as re-imagined by jam bands such as DMB and Phish.

Jr Gong to close Jazz Fest 2012

1326956238 78 Jr Gong to close Jazz Fest 2012

Janet Silvera, Senior Gleaner Writer

Grammy megastar, Damian ‘Jr Gong’ Marley will close the curtains on the ‘Sweet 16′ Jamaica Jazz & Blues Festival next week Saturday night, January 28.

Dubbed, The Art of Music’, Marley, the youngest son of reggae legend Bob Marley, shares the spotlight with Cee-Lo Green, Heads of State (featuring Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill and Ralph Tresvant), Earl Klugh, The Temptations Review, featuring Dennis Edwards and Trinidad’s Destra.

Like Marley, the Art of Music Productions (AMP) has booked the indomitable Maxi Priest, adding the renowned reggae artiste to Thursday night’s line-up, kickstarting Jamaica’s 50th anniversary of Independence celebrations, says Walter Elmore, AMP chairman.

“We are honouring our country and our music, it is only fitting that we have the King of Reggae’s youngest son close the show. If Bob was alive, he would definitely be closing the show,” stated Elmore.

“Damian has been doing such an amazing job, and if you attended Shaggy & Friends concert, you would have noticed the powerful performance from him and his brother, Stephen,” said Elmore.

The young Marley, whose breakthrough came with his 2004 single Welcome to Jamrock, has won two Grammy awards, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him appear onstage with his megastar siblings, Stephen and Ziggy Marley.

According to Elmore, the opening night, of the three-night event (January 26-28), is dedicated to all the rich sounds that have shaped Jamaica’s music over the past 50 years, and will feature ska, rocksteady, dancehall and reggae, the island nation’s influential contributions to world music.

Cadre of musicians

Elmore and his team have carefully selected a cadre of musicians led by the incomparable Shaggy; Richie ‘unquenchable’ Stephens and Gentleman; the man known for his 1,000 volts, John Holt; the man who took the ’80s by storm, Yellow Man; the veteran Half Pint; Marcia Griffiths; Lloyd Parkes and We The People; George Nooks; Luciano; Mykal Rose; AJ Brown; Pluto Shervington; Etana; Chris Martin; Marcia Barrett (Boney M); Derrick Morgan; Assassin (Agent Sasco); and Byron Lee’s Dragonaires.
