Matisyahu is back and has announced a national spring tour with a tour stop at the UC Theater in Berkeley to promote his recently released new EP, “Release The Bound.”
Matisyahu first gained worldwide recognition with the single “King Without A Crown,” which reached #1 on the alternative rock radio charts. “King without a Crown” quickly climbed the charts and Matisyahu’s follow up record “Youth” was nominated for a Grammy.
Now, more than a decade and 9 records later, Matisyahu has formed a new band that features original Stubbs guitarist and longtime staple of the downtown New York improv scene Aaron Dugan, Dub Trio bassist and long-time Matisyahu collaborator Stu Brooks, Joe Tomino drummer of the dub trio and drummer for Matisyahu since 2009, percussionist and Cyro Baptista go-to-drummer Tim Keiper, and Virtuoso keyboardist Big Yuki.
