The Turkey Bouillon Mafia is dedicated to a mission and one mission alone: to fight both heaven and hell for the pompous possession of the eternal soul of rock and roll. Born from the brimstone of the early days of the new millennium, The Mafia has spent the past few years digging a strong foothold in a potential top leadership roll in the modern rock revival. Based upon the distinct writing styles of guitarist Ben Yurco, and keyboardist Adam King, TBM are the embodiment of the full spectrum of rock. With strong roots in funk and jazz, the band brings a technical artistry to their brute sound that sets them leagues above most of their peers and even some of their heroes.
Centered around their viscious live performances, The Mafia is supported by a tight network of mortally dedicated fans. Known to hook many a virgin ear with their tongue-in-cheek attitude, a Mafia show can be at the same time both mesmerizing and disorienting. With the music always moving in oddly new and inspiring directions, fans have come to expect anything from TBM: exploding amps, gangster rap battles, slam dancing hippies, pie fights, guitar wars with weapon masters, brass parades through the crowds, punk rockers with tears in their eyes, psychedelic send offs, or maybe just 400 sweaty pranksters pouring beer over their heads and singing about a bag of donuts.
2006 is proving to be an extremely exciting time for Turkey Bouillon. With the permanent addition of guitar virtuoso Dave Diamond, and a departure from the horn-dominated sound that they have embraced over recent years, TBM is bursting with new material and a rejuvenated primal life force that is not for the light-hearted. A sound and attitude both underground and over the top, The Mafia’s energy is undeniably infectious, and the band thrives on an open wounded bond between them and their audience. TBM is presently at work on their first full-length studio album, highly anticipated to be out later this year. Already the young heartthrobs of New England, New York, and Philly, these old souls are ready to welcome the rest of the world home.
