Worth

Nach dem Worth im Frühjahr 2013 zum ersten Mal mit seinem kongenialen Partner/Schlagzeuger und Bucketdrummer Phil Bondy durch Österreich tourte war es der Wunsch der Fans und der Veranstalter ihn und seine Band so schnell wie möglich wieder nach Europa zu holen!….und nun kommt er zurück mit Band und dem neuen Album: Two im Gepäck!!!

Wer wissen will, was ein Bucketdrummer ist, schaut sich am besten das zweite Video an!

Just one year after the critically acclaimed release of Six Foot Soul, Portland Oregon-based folk-soul alchemist Worth is hitting the road again with a brand new album and an electrified 5 piece band.  

Worth's sophomore record Two is the 2nd concept piece in a trilogy titled The Identity Tryptic which he plans to complete by late 2014.  Like the first album, Two takes the listener on an epic journey through as wide a range of emotions as it does genres. 24 tracks in all (12 songs and 12 interludes), the album was recorded mostly live to 2 tape in just two and a half weeks.  Psychedelic interludes blend vocal samples over abstract improvisations and act as segues tying together a narrative in song.  The compositions are simultaneously classic and modern; the sound is rich, warm, and alive. 

Since the dissolution of his prior full band project NIAYH (Now Is All You Have) in 2011, Worth has played at festivals like What The Festival and Waterfront Blues Fest (OR).  He has shared the stage with Allen Stone, Lynx, March 4th Marching Band, Marv Ellis, SaQi, Russ Liquid, Lila Rose and has been a repeated cast member in Portland's yearly White Album Christmas show.  OPB's Oregon Art Beat recently did a full feature on him.
