It was a fun concert @ the Fox Theatre in Boulder, Colorado and my finger is kinda covering the mic.

Oooppssss!

If you like to dance and groove to music, then Mama’s Cookin’ is a unique band that will be in your interest.

They play very unique sounds with a mixture of roots, bass heavy jazz, world beats, hip hop, blues, delta blues, funk rock, with a little jamm-band.

Zeb Early, songwriter and guitar player has written all the songs on both CD’s and has a lot more performed on stage.

Their first CD called “Let The Record Ride” was released in 2004 and the second one “Mama’s Cookin” was released in 2007.

The FaceBook fan page is a good place to see a few videos from the fans and Mama’s Cookin’ themselves.

Cookin’ can also be found on YouTube with a couple of releases with the famous keyboardist Bernie Worrell.
