Beware: Joey Porter’s Shady Business is Out to Get You – Friday!

Apparently, there is just no way to slow Joey Porter down. In addition to all of his work with The Motet and Juno What? (and producing Joe Marcinek’s brilliant Slink), he has a big show coming up in May at Spread the Word Colorado Music Festival with Joey Porter’s Vital Organ, and he has yet another project ready to blow up Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom this Friday, April 7th.

This conglomeration is Joey Porter’s Shady Business, and he has rounded up the usual suspects for an amazing night of music. Kris Meyers, the birthday boy from Umphrey’s McGee, will be at drum kit, with Garrett Sayers, Porter’s Motet bandmate, joining Meyers in the rhythm section on bass. Jennifer Hartswick, from Trey Anastasio Band, will contribute her great trumpet and remarkable voice. Adam “Shmeeans” Smirnoff, the “funky strummer from Lettuce,” will be in the house, and two more Motet members will join in the fun: vocalist and aerobic dancer Lyle Divinisky and Drew Sayers on saxophone.

Con Brio is on the bill, bringing their San Francisco brand of funk to Denver on their Birds of Paradise tour, and hometown favorites The RunniKine add even more funk to the proceedings!

Be there or be heptagonal!
