The Sheridan Arts Foundation presents the Pimps of Joytime at the historic Sheridan Opera House on Friday, March 13, 2015.
A band whose name carries a certain je ne sais quoi, the Pimps of Joytime were born out of frontman Brian J’s desire to layer his broad range of musical influences — soul, funk, blues and rock n’ roll — onto the freedom of an unapologetic dance groove.
Since 2007, this Brooklyn-based wildly infectious group has grown from playing basement parties down the street to headlining more than 100 shows each year, with stops along the festival circuit at Bonnaroo, High Sierra, Outside Lands, All Good, the VooDoo Experience and more. The Pimps’ debut record, High Steppin’, dropped in 2008 on Wonderwheel Recordings to critical acclaim from the likes of NPR and BBC, followed by their sophomore release, Janxta Funk!, in 2011.
Currently writing and recording tracks for their third studio album (anticipated for release in Spring 2015), the forthcoming release will be their most inspired, distinct studio effort to date. Both in studio and on the road, the Pimps of Joytime are not to be missed. Bring your favorite dance shoes and a dry towel to wipe your brow to the show. This group knows how to get you to shake your booty and sweat out your troubles
The doors will open at 8 p.m.; show time is 8:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale at sheridanoperahouse.com or by calling 970-728-6363 ext. 5 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
