Performing in the small basement venue \u2013 that smells like fresh pizza all night \u2013 on Tuesday, May 8, DC fans that made it out were treated to an excellent show that kept the crowd moving all the way through. With support from DC\u2019s <strong>Backbeat Underground<\/strong>, the two bands combined for a lively weeknight dance party.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Backbeat Underground, who describes their music as a soulful blend of funk and jazz, provided a dynamic opening set. The six-piece outfit set the tone for the evening with an energetic set of instrumental tunes. Backbeat Underground\u2019s two-piece horn section amped up the audience, making sure that the crowd was primed and ready for a show that would keep everyone dancing until the bitter end. By the time Backbeat\u2019s set finished, everyone in the room was limber and ready for the main event.<\/p>\n<p>The New Mastersounds opened their set with up-tempo tunes to keep the energy raised before shifting gears with the slow funk of \u201cMRG.\u201d Marked by the lead guitar riffs of <strong>Eddie Roberts<\/strong>, this song also featured the pianist\/organist, <strong>Joe Tatton<\/strong>, tickling the ivories with an outstanding piano solo. Next, the band played \u201cGreen Was Beautiful,\u201d off their new record because, as the band said, \u201cwe\u2019re going to try to sell that to you all evening\u201d because carrying the vinyl on tour \u201cis very heavy and inconvenient, so even if you don\u2019t have a turntable you should buy one out of guilt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\" style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-40591\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" title=\"The New Mastersounds at Union Stage\" data-id=\"40591\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-300x200.jpg\" scale=\"0\" style=\"width: 100%; -webkit-user-select: none;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-220x147.jpg 220w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-404x270.jpg 404w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-374x250.jpg 374w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-350x234.jpg 350w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-561x375.jpg 561w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-698x466.jpg 698w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384-838x560.jpg 838w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_5384.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The witty banter and the song were sure to sell a few copies, as this tune wound through sections of infectious hooks and frantic solo work by Roberts. The tightness of the band was on full display as the rhythm section of <strong>Pete Shand<\/strong> and <strong>Simon Allen<\/strong> held the pocket together for their bandmates on bass and drums, respectively. After declaring, \u201cthis one\u2019s more chill,\u201d the New Mastersounds throttled down for another new tune, \u201cPudding &amp; Pie,\u201d highlighted by smooth piano leads from Tatton, who eventually spread his wings to play both piano and organ simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGroovin\u2019 on the Groomers\u201d offered a playful, booty-shaking jam featuring some whistling to kick things into high gear and \u201cTake What You Need\u201d allowed Shand and Allen to shine, with Roberts giving them space to solo, contributing with a tambourine, while Tatton provided light organ accompaniment. When Roberts switched back to guitar, digging into dirty funk with his wah pedal, and the band brought the song to a rousing peak, the floor vibrated as the bass lines overtook the room.<\/p>\n<p>The down-tempo funk of \u201cThis Ain\u2019t Work\u201d evokes the New Orleans funk style of <strong>The Meters<\/strong> and served as a great breather after a thrilling run through the intense, minor-key jazz exploration \u201cYokacoka.\u201d Tatton moved to clavinet for a raucous solo in \u201cYou Got It All\u201d that served as the climax of the show, which would then start to wind down, later featuring a unique instrumental cover of \u201c6 Underground\u201d by<strong> Sneaker Pimps<\/strong>. The band revved back up with \u201cSan Frantico\u201d and finished the show with \u201cBaby Bouncer,\u201d putting an exclamation point on a fun and fantastic performance.<\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7c3fa1\"><strong>Audio Recordings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7c3fa1\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Audio Recordings<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7c3faf\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Audio Recordings<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-16366eb6501\">Enjoy the audio recording by our contributor <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/@vwmule\" style=\"user-select: none;\"><strong>Alex Leary<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-16366eb6504\"><strong>Performance Date:<\/strong>&nbsp; May 8, 2018<\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7bfce8\"><strong>Photo Gallery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7bfce8\"><strong>Photo Gallery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-165ed7bfd02\"><strong>Photo Gallery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-css=\"tve-u-1636489110f\">Enjoy photos by our photographer <a href=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/josh-brick\/\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Josh Brick<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp; of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joshbrickgraphics\/\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">Josh Brick Graphics<\/a>.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British funk quartet, the New Mastersounds, stopped in Washington, DC this week as they tour in support of their new album Renewable Energy, playing a headlining gig at the Southwest Waterfront\u2019s newest music venue, Union Stage.

capital in 2006. A dedicated fan of the jam band scene, Seth has logged countless miles attending upwards of 70 Phish shows, dozens of Umphrey's McGee shows, and trips to LOCKN' and Peach festivals. Also an activist, you're likely to spot Seth registering voters with Headcount at DC's local music venues."}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40184","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40184"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40184\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40564"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40184"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40184"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
