Skvelá správa pre Zappafilov! The GrandMothers of Invention sa 4. marca po roku vracia do Nu Spirit Clubu. Ak máte radi Franka Zappu a vôbec psychedelický rock a jazz, nenechajte si ujsť koncert The GrandMothers of Invention. Nejde tu o žiadny comeback, toto je reinkarnácia pôvodnej zostavy The Mothers of Invention.
Ich spolupráca so Zappom začala na legendárnom albume Freak Out a rôznych personálnych obmenách pretrvala až do polovice osemdesiatych rokov. Základ zostavy The GrandMothers of Invention vytvorili Napoleon Murphy Brock, Roy Estrada, Bunk Gardner, a Don Preston. kapelu dali opäť dokopy v roku 2002, na festivale v nemeckom Lipsku. Organizátori ich vtedy požiadali, aby odohrali set zložený z repertoáru Franka Zappu. Hudobníkom sa to natoľko zapáčilo, že z jednorázového projektu nakoniec vznikla regulérna kapela. Ich live show je mixom vintage psychedélie a rockových songov so surreálnymi textami a harmóniami. Celé je to ozdobené zábleskami šialenej Zappovskej satiry a free jazzovými úletmi.
Predpredaj začína na 15 eurách v Nu Spirit Bare na Medenej od 21. februara.

The Mothers of Invention were an American rock band from California that served as the backing musicians for Frank Zappa, a self-taught composer and performer whose diverse musical influences led him to create music that was often impossible to categorize[citation needed]. Their work is marked by the use of sonic experimentation, innovative album art, and elaborate live shows.
