Featuring Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart, Keller Williams, Davy Knowles, Sikiru Adepoju and Andy Hess

Friday July 16th the Rhythm Devils Feat. Bill Kreutzmann, Micky Hart and Keller Williams make a special stop in Humboldt at the Arcata Theater for a night of drumming, dancing, and great music.

"We got tighter and we got better. We got away from just having two drummers playing the same thing. That never works. It doesnt make it a better sound, to have two identical drummers playing. So we tried to be different and be complimentary...We define whos going to play what part so that its complimentary instead painting so many colors until it turns black."- Bill Kreutzmann

The Rhythm Devils began as the duo of Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann and his percussionist partner Mickey Hart. Over the years, they transcended rock and roll drum stereotypes with polyrhythmic explorations of the world of percussion, using an extraordinary variety of instruments and approaches. The aftermath of this collaboration was the larger Rhythm Devils, which have made periodic reappearances over the years with many different musicians adding texture and flavor to the mix. Some of these musicians include Mike Gordon, Steve Kimock, Jen Durkin and more. The 2010 version includes Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart, Keller Williams (guitar, vocals), Davy Knowles (guitar, vocals), Sikiru Adepoju (talking drum), and Andy Hess (bass). Together, they will take music beyond the horizon to a universe where rhythm is in constant flux and sound has infinite potential. Theyll rock.
