Happy Thanksgiving y’all! One of the biggest things I’m thankful for is that I’ve been blessed enough to be in a position to offer fantastic tickets to amazing shows during the holiday season. Charles Bradley & the Menahan Street Band are coming to LA, stopping by at UCLA’s Royce Hall on November 29th. You might remember that the last time Charles and the boys were in town was last summer as Sunset Junction went down in “flames” they played a last minute show at the Echo. This time they’re able to return in grand style and at a venue worthy of their special brand of retro-soul. Whether you win tickets or not, you don’t want to miss this show! For a chance to see them courtesy of Melting Pot, make sure to e-mail me at michael[at]meltingpotblog.com by Monday, November 26th by 5pm!
Just in case you forgot, Charles Bradley released one of my favorite records of 2011 and is a truly dynamite live performer. Here he and the band perform “Golden Rule” via KEXP:
The Menahan Street Band just recently released their second LP, “The Crossing,” just as fantastic as their debut:
