"Bring Back Pluto"!
Funk/Fusion/jazz group "Bring Back Pluto" was formed in the summer of 2006 as a way of releasing some of the funk demons that had been lurking in its three members. Mark Jodice trades in his big hollow-body for a strat and lets it rip throughout. Bassist Jerry Wilfong drops the dog house for a "pork chop", while Sai Ghose plays hooky from the land of piano black and white and lays down the groove underneath of funk, jazz and metal. A truly original guitar trio. Their CD "Nine" has been in very heavy rotation here at the store and is simply awesome! Come in and sample it! The CD's are here for sale as well.
A must see show! Partial proceeds will benefit the Tahanto Music Parents Organization. “T. M. P. O.” is a non-profit parent organization dedicated to the advancement, enrichment and scholarship for the students of the Tahanto Regional Middle/High School music program.
Tickets maybe purchased in advance at Mockingbird Music for $10.00
Tickets may also be purchased at the door the day of the show for $12.00
