The Rivoli - Toronto
They're back! In a stunning return to form, after a lengthy absence, following the release of their acclaimed album Momentum, Toronto's sassy, brassy, Turbo Street Funk explode with a new single, "(Hello, My Name is) Good Fortune." Mining the rhythms and harmonies of classic New Orleans funk, they sing about taking a chance on chance itself.
"(Hello, My Name is) Good Fortune" rides an irresistibly funky groove that fires on all cylinders, from the catchiest of guitar riffs, to the propulsive horns, to the strident vocals, to an instant-singalong chorus, to a red-hot blues harp, wailing away. Like much of what they do, this is designed to grab the crowd at a live show and never let go.
"They say luck finds you when you’re not looking," says TSF frontman, singer, guitarist, and chief songwriter Casey Van. "What if feeling funky, and just walking with a groove, could bring you luck? Then, out of nowhere, someone appears, calling themselves the embodiment of good fortune, and invites you to sing along. Would you? 'Good Fortune' reminds us to not fear the unknown, to go with the flow, and to follow groove of the world around us."
The single release will include a concert/live album recording, and a band birthday bash all-in-one, taking place at The Rivoli, 344 Queen Street West in Toronto.
The concert is $10 and starts at 7:00 pm with opening set by Trash Panda Brass.
