Although the name Phil Gould is associated primarily with Level 42, his career as a musician goes much deeper. He started out playing in bands, along with his brother, while living on the Isle of Wight when he was a teen. Having studied percussion at the Royal Academy of Music, he later found his way onto the charts with the band M and their worldwide hit ‘Pop Muzik’, as well as a stint with the band Roxy Music. He departed Level 42 in 1987 and took a lengthy hiatus from music in the mid 90’s and 2000’s. He finally returned in 2009 to deliver his solo debut titled “Watertight”, a collection of eleven songs and features ex-Level 42 band mate Mike Lindup and Berenice Scott on lead vocals. And there’s more on the way, as Phil is working on even more new music that could be released later this year. Inside MusiCast welcomes Phil Gould.
Larry Graham & Graham Central Station with special guest Mark King plays the North Sea Jazz Festival on Friday, July 12, 2013 in the Nile, 6:00 PM – 7:15 PM.
An electric bass guitar is not just for bass lines: you can also drum on it and play melodies. At least Larry Graham can when he has one in his hands. He began his style of playing as a teenager in his mother’s band when the organist and drummer both took off, and developed it to perfection in Sly & the Family Stone. A pumping funk bass became his trademark. After collaborating with Sly Stone for six years, in 1972 he formed his own band Hot Chocolate, later renamed Graham Central Station. Afterwards, among other things, he worked for a long time with Prince who is also a guest on Graham Central Station’s latest album, Raise Up (2012). The funk bassist likes challenging collaborations: at the North Sea Jazz Festival he will be performing with Mark King, bassist and singer of British band Level 42.
