[MUSIC INTERVIEW] INFECTIOUS GROOVES - 2024 Australian Tour Interview - Subculture Media. Infectious Grooves - Gig Review 5th April @ Roundhouse, Sydney NSW. Infectious GroovesThe Roundhouse, Sydney NSW April 5th, 2024 Support: Inspector Cluzo If you were wondering what the core demographic of tonight’s audience would be at the Infectious Grooves show at the Roundhouse tonight, then the sea of Mr. Bungle, Pantera, Metallica and Suicidal Tendencies logos emblazoned across the chests of the punters on hand may serve as a solid indication of what to expect of tonight’s crowd.

Vintage nineties band paraphernalia is out in force tonight and while It’s fair to say that, at 46, I’m not the youngest bloke here, I’m certainly not the oldest. The boomers are out in force, armed to the teeth with cans of bourbon and a few of them are in the running for parent of the year, having brought their adult kids with them. To be fair, this place should be packed to the gills tonight. The calibre of musicians on show tonight will soon become the stuff of legend. This is a band consisting of some of the most iconic musicians on the planet. Youtube. Infectious Grooves To Kick Off Their Australian Tour... - Hi Fi Way. It all starts tomorrow in Melbourne tomorrow with the legendary Infectious Grooves kicking off their Australian tour which includes appearing at BluesFest.

The funk-metal super group are also playing massive headline shows in Brisbane, Adelaide and Sydney! Boasting an all-star lineup of incredible players, Infectious Grooves are set to unleash an insane performance that sees them play their first shows globally in five years and their first in Australia since playing at Soundwave Festival in 2008, sixteen long years ago! The 2024 incarnation of Infectious Grooves is more potent than ever. Featuring original members, Suicidal Tendencies front man, Mike Muir, and guitarist Dean Pleasants who are both fresh from a sold-out tour of Australia last November that celebrated the fortieth Anniversary of Suicidal Tendencies debut album.

They will be accompanied by none other than founding bassist of Infectious Grooves, Robert Trujillo who is making a long-awaited comeback to Australia. Like this: Infectious Grooves, Inspector Cluzo @ Hindley Street Music Hall, Adelaide 4/4/2024 - Hi Fi Way. Summer nights, keg parties, makeshift stages and your best mates getting up and rocking the night away. It’s something some of us have been blessed to be part of however if you have not, we all saw it live on MTV in the early 90’s when they cared about music. Tonight, in Adelaide we get the nearest experience we can get to those rock n roll cook outs in someone’s backyard as supergroup party band Infectious Grooves find their way onto the Adelaide stage. A line up of ‘Is that the dude from (insert said band)…?’

, they are entertaining, fun and considering the cast, unsurprisingly excellent. However, before we get to the who’s who band, we had hailing from France Inspector Cluzo, a two-piece outfit that is equal parts eccentric and electrifying. Dressed like waiters in a 1920’s restaurant, the dishes they serve up are scrumptious. Musically they swing – literally – between rock, metal, groove, jazz and it’s music you can dance to anywhere as most of the early crowd are doing. Like this: LIVE: Infectious Grooves punk it up at the Fortitude Music Hall - 31 March 2024 – Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane – words by Joe Harbour – pictures by Bec Harbour Infectious Grooves is the side project of Mike Muir and Rob Trujillo from Suicidal Tendencies and Metallica. This was around before Rob’s foray into über successful thrash metal and as I’m told, a vehicle to showcase his bass playing skills.

Well if you’ve heard him then you know he can certainly play bass. But first let me tell you a little about the support. Tonight, The Inspector Cluzo from France have tagged along to bring their quirky version of noise to the Australian masses. Featuring Laurent (Guitar, Lead Vocal) and Mathieu (Drums), have carved a 30-year career delivering high octane blues rock, while at the same time running their own 15Ha organic farm promoting the Agro-Ecologic system which seeks to fight the challenges of climate change and sustainability for future generations.

It may have been a rainy night in old Sydney town, but that didn’t deter the cyco army heading out to catch the funk-metal supergroup Infectious Grooves. The current touring lineup is down here for a Aus show run bringing together Suicidal Tendencies’ Mike Muir on vocals, Metallica’s Robert Trujillo on bass, and Jay Weinburg formally of Slipknot on drums. This powerhouse of talent promises a concert experience like no other. The evening starts with a unique performance by the French rock-blues duo The Inspector Cluzo. This bass-less band delivers a soulful, funk-influenced explosion of classic rock intensity. Their high energy and unique sound set the stage for the rest of the night, and I highly recommend experiencing their live show. Before Infectious Grooves comes on, we get a fun video catching us up on where the band members have been, including everyone’s anthropomorphic reptile Sarsippius Ark. The guys were having a blast up there on the stage.

GIG REVIEW: Infectious Grooves w/ The Inspector Cluzo – Adelaide 04th April 2024 - Metal-Roos. On Thursday night Hindley Street Music Hall hosted the legendary supergroup Infectious Grooves. Featuring Mike Muir and Dean Pleasants of Suicidal Tendencies, Robert Trujillo of Metallica, Dave Kushner of Velvet Revolver and former Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg.

The French farmers known as Inspector Cluzo kicked things off. As soon as they started a toothless gentleman launched a cup of ice at them before being swiftly booted from the venue. Welcome to Adelaide. This duo is a hidden gem that brought a mix of blues and rock. Fusing an old school flavour with a modern sound akin to The White Stripes or the Arctic Monkeys, only more raw. The topic matter of their music largely focuses on their experience as farmers in rural France.

The drummer accounted for a lot of the energy. Not long after they finished a video started playing on the massive projector screen behind the stage. Mike has more energy on stage than most performers in their twenties that we see. Written by Brad Hapke. Scenestr - Review: Infectious Grooves @ Hindley Street Music Hall (Adelaide) In town for the AFL's Gather Round, it was a neat surprise to discover American metal-funk supergroup Infectious Grooves were also in Adelaide. With singer Mike Muir's Suicidal Tendencies bandmates joining him in Australia to tour in late 2023, Muir (now a permanent resident of Australia where his three sons were born) was dead-keen to bring his other band IG back down under. . . when OG member (and Metallica stalwart) bassist Robert Trujillo had a 'two-week gap' the pair got busy.

When regular drummer Brooks Wackerman had Avenged Sevenfold commitments, Muir didn't despair prepping a list of fill-ins when his son Tyson made the obvious connection, Slipknot's Jay Weinberg (son of Max Weinberg of The E Street Band). Taking over the Hindley Street Music Hall (4 April), the show began in trademark IG goofy humour, with a short film featuring the band's masked mascots Infectiphibian, Sarsippius and a third character whose name escapes me (while the Internet fails me).

INFECTIOUS GROOVES, INFECTIOUS CHAOS - LIVE AT THE FORTITUDE MUSIC HALL, 2024. — Blue Sunday. I always find it a bizarre experience seeing an act live for the first time, especially something so rooted in my youth - it unlocks a plethora of memories and always chokes me up regardless of genre.

I was cracking my neck to every bass run but also phasing in and out of existentialism - it’s all I know. After These freaks, Turtle Wax and Stop Funk’n, I escaped the cluttered photo pit and slinked around to stage left to a pocket of short people I could see between. Taking in so much on-stage banter and trying to keep up - [Mike Muir is almost too charismatic and energetic for his own good] and keeping up with the endless banter was just one fantastically chaotic element of the group’s performance as a whole. I was hearing talk about Dave’s Doughnut Shop Dream, their Bluesfest appearance tonight (April 1st), and their love for playing Australia. We also got a lot of banter from Trujillo which was fantastic to witness. INFECTIOUS GROOVES Return To Australia.
