Introducing Dr Meaker, June 2008.
Bristol’s Dr Meaker is a producer who, with his 8-piece live band, presents one of the most exciting live dance acts in Britain right now.
Having previously been signed back in 2001, Clive Meaker has taken a new approach to music writing. Using soul, jazz and reggae influences to produce the Meaker sound, Dr Meaker makes music which has commercial appeal whilst remaining true to it’s underground roots.
This unique sound is taken to a live audience with an ensemble that includes Bristol’s finest musicians, some of whom have worked with the likes of Bugz In Attic, Kosheen, Roots Manuva, Kasabian and Massive Attack amongst others.
Dr Meaker’s debut single “Moving And Grooving” is an uptempo dance track with soul vocals, acoustic guitars, heavy breaks and double bass all rolling across a gypsy jazz backdrop. Mixed by Howie B (Soul II Soul, Bjork) and mastered by John Dent (Bob Marley, Zero 7) Moving And Grooving is set to be a hit. The B-Side, “Touch My Heart” is an uplifting dance track with emotive strings, and an intimate vocal sung by Lorna King.
The band have been rocking Moving And Grooving across the country in their live set and if the roar of the crowd at Glastonbury is anything to go by, it’ll only be a matter of time before we start seeing and hearing a lot more of this record and Dr Meakers talent.
