Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe Presents Run DMC Remixed feat. Vokab Kompany, Amp Live //
The Independent – San Francisco
January 2nd, 2015 //
This past weekend at The Independent, SF was treated to a doubleheader of funk infusion provided by none other than Karl Denson and his always-entertaining Tiny Universe. The theme of this mini tour, which enlisted the MC skills of the Vokab Kompany’s vocalists, was “Run DMC Remixed”.
After a great opening set from Amp Live and a venue-packed performance from KDTU featuring a guest spot from guitar virtuoso Eric McFadden, the whole crew returned to the stage to “rock the mic” live. Busting out a greatest hits set of hip-hop classics, the stage full of performers paid homage to the party-igniting discography of Run DMC. Displaying an incredible blend of musical talent and prolonged celebratory energy from all the New Year’s festivities earlier in the week, the show was easily one of the best ways to kick 2015 into high gear.
Tiny Universe with a big big sound…..One of the best shows ever!
