NEW EARTH FARMERS Saturday, September 19 at 2 P.M. Down Home Music 10341 San Palo Avenue El Cerrito, CA Formed by veterans of the California roots scene, New Earth Farmers features Paul Michael Knowles (vocals/guitars/keyboards/bass), Nicole Storto (vocals/guitar), and Nigel Twist (the original founding drummer of The Alarm). They are frequently joined by James DePrato (guitar), Kevin T. White (bass), Jeff LeGore (bass) and Melissa Phillips-DePrato on harmony vocals. Their music has been known for blending Americana, 70s style rock and folk rock. The sound is expanding to incorporate hints of funk and soul on this new effort with subconscious comparisons to artists like World Party, Staple Singers, Curtis Mayfield, and George Harrison. The band aims to avoid confining their music to a single genre. "The song drives the treatment and genre of each track," Knowles explained. “In an era where lyrics often take a back seat to style, fashion, materialism, and hipness, we prioritize lyrics. Our songs ask questions, praise empathy and love, acknowledge inequity, inequality, and tribalism, and seek peace of mind in confusing times.
