THE PIMPS OF JOYTIME IN CONCERT:
The best part of seeing The Pimps Of Joytime in concert is that you never know what to expect. The Brooklyn-based quintet doesn't confine themselves to just one or even two genres -- anything is fair game, meaning ticket buyers are in for surprising, rollicking spectacles. Even the band's stellar recordings don't fully convey their soulful, funky energy -- this is music that's meant to be experienced live. Whether they're making the floors shake with the hip-hop-infused "Janxta Funk", shaking their hips to the mambo-influenced "Bonita", or sparking dance-offs with the groovy club anthem "Booty Text", The Pimps Of Joytime pack personality and passion into each of their shows, leaving crowds grooving all night long.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
In 2007 singer Brian J recruited a diverse band of musicians from Brooklyn and New Orleans to form a genre-defying supergroup influenced by acts like Santana and Parliament Funkadelic. They dubbed themselves The Pimps Of Joytime and began creating a wildly varied catalog that combines soul, funk, rock, blues, reggae, dub, and salsa. The band is known for their extensive touring, typically playing more than 100 shows a year including major festivals like Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, High Sierra, and All Good. Since its inception, the group has had a rotating lineup of drummers and bass players, but Brian J and vocalists Chauncey Yearwood and Mayteana Morales remain the three core members. In total the band has released three studio albums -- 2008's High Steppin', 2011's Janxta Funk!, and 2014's Jukebox Paradise -- building a rich collection of danceable tunes that come to life at their thrilling live performances.
