Michael Shrieve |
The tremendous line-up for the Jerry Garcia Birthday Bash on August 6 - 8 in Terra Alta, WV, just got better as New Monsoon will be joined on stage at both of their sets by very special guest, Michael Shrieve, the original drummer for Santana, and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Shrieve has had a long and interesting career as a rock drummer, percussionist, and progressive electronic composer. Gaining early recognition as the powerhouse drummer for Santana, the teenage Shrieve was launched into the popular culture maelstrom when he performed an extended drum solo during Santana's appearance at the legendary Woodstock festival. Over the years, Shrieve has continued to strive for innovative approaches to percussion-based music. His numerous collaborations include work with Stomu Yamash'ta, Klaus Schulze, Steve Roach, David Beal, David Torn, and Andy Summers, to name a few.
If you plan on attending the festival, New Monsoon will play in the Barn, late night on Friday at midnight. They also will be playing the Mainstage on Sunday, at 2:00 p.m. Shrieve will be sitting in at both sets. Tickets are available at www.sunshinedreams.com
