email us for a free CD
DOWN WITH WEBSTER is a 7-member, genre-bending, musical ensemble that incorporates everything from rock, funk, and hip-hop into their sonic brew. Their chaotic live shows are the stuff of local legend, selling 1000+ tickets as headliners in their hometown of Toronto as an indie band before ever releasing a single or video. DWW have played with everyone from The Roots to a month-long run on Warped Tour and slot on Virgin Festival in 2009. The band writes, produces and performs all of their music, garnering attention from industry veterans as varied as Timbaland and KISS front man Gene Simmons, both of whom wanted to sign the band to their respective labels.
We all have our favorite bands and music style/types even a favorite bar or venue but you may not have realized that The Crofoot (that multi venue joint out in Pontiac) may have actually put together the show you were checking out at a different venue all over town such as Park Bar, ROMT, Old Miami, Lager House etc...This continues to be a method of market penetration that as far as I know no other venue/promoter has even attempted around town and now they are presenting shows outside of the motorcity as well (lets not forget that the cross border Ontario shows MCB considers to be motorcity - its just across the river)
Check all the details here and thank The Crofoot for not putting themselves first when it comes to bringing great music to Detroit but also for continuing to reach across the aisle and working with other venues large and small to put on killer shows here and out of town
This is another example of just one of the reasons the folks over at The Crofoot get my vote
NOTE - if you decide you want to go check this show LMK
we will get you and all your friends on the list
