Ikebe Shakedown is an Afro-Funk-Soul-Disco band I co-lead. Ikebe's first full length LP and new single were released on Ubiquity Records over the summer of 2011. Recorded at Killion Sound in LA (Orgone) and at Dunham Studios in Brooklyn (run
by Tom Brenneck - of the Dap Kings, Budos Band, etc) this was a follow up
on debut EP and several 45s released on Colemine Records. A track from the new
album is featured in an ad for the new Mini-Coupe, currently airing on TV worldwide.
The new record has been getting some great sales/press, including larger publications such as a review on Okayplayer's Revivalist, as well as independent blogs while gaining increased radio play, both in the US and international. While featuring members that have toured regularly with bigger acts including Charles Bradley, FELA! the musical, Lee Fields, The Duke Ellington Orchestra and Streetlight Manifesto, Ikebe Shakedown continues to play high energy shows throughout NYC and the Northeast.
