Watch DJ Premier Practice with His New Live Band
The legendary DJ Premier recently formed a live band, and now fans can get a taste of what to expect with a video teaser.
Although the group has already performed three shows in Japan, it doesn’t have a name yet, and Premo is currently taking suggestions on Twitter. Tweet him your ideas @REALDJPREMIER with hashtag #NamePreemosNewBand.
The band is composed of DJ Premier on turntables, Brady Watt on bass, Lenny “The Ox” Reece on drums, Takuya Kuroda on horns and keyboards, and Corey King on trombone and keyboards.
Premo told XXL Magazine last month: “I put a live band together because I’ve always dreamed of being in one ever since I was a kid … I have a funky group of players assembled to play my classics and perform new things.”
