AUG 2015 BOOGIE MAGAZINE: RHYTHM AND THE METHOD DO WOODSTOCK TRIBUTE

Rhythm and the Method - Woodstock 1969 revisited

SAN DIEGO, August 8th – Rhythm and the Method once again exposed their range of talent with a rousing evening of 60’s music paying homage to the artists of Woodstock. Playing to the packed Back Room at 98 Bottles, the father/daughter/son family band with dear friend Laura Payne, outfitted appropriately in Woodstock-inspired regalia, slowly fueled the intensity in the room as they covered the likes of Carlos Santana, Joe Cocker, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and The Who. Rhythm, completely immersed in the music and dreadlocks whipping the air, and brother Evan pumping the wah-wah pedal and ripping through licks that would’ve made Jimi proud, more than did justice to rock royalty of years past. Influenced and nurtured by their father, the ever-humble Papa John Turner, it’s particularly impressive that these young musicians pull from the past for creative inspiration. Impressively holding the backline were Gavin Glenn and Julie Unternahrer on percussion and Nina Leilani on keyboard.
