DJ PREMIER ANNOUNCES EUROPEAN TOUR WITH LIVE BAND
DJ Premier and his live band will head overseas for a 16 date tour that starts on September 2nd in Leipzig, Germany and wraps up on September 19th in Mannheim, Germany. We announced the formation of the band earlier this year along with their June 13th show in New York. Now that the band has a few shows under their belt, it’s time to hit the road.
The band is comprised of DJ Premier (Turntables), Brady Watt (Bass), Lenny “The Ox” Reece (Drums), Takuya Kuroda (Horns and Keys) & Corey King (Trombone and Keys).
Premier explained his desire to bring live instrumentation to his show.
“I’ve always wanted to put a band together because I come from the 70’s when bands were everywhere in all genres,” DJ Premier said. “The only addition is turntables and my voice as the only lead.”
So what is there to expect when the legendary producer hits the stage with a live band? Obviously, it will put a new spin on DJ Premier’s classics. But Preemo says that you can expect more than just DJ Premier classics from the live band.
“We get busy and have so many songs to choose from,” he said. “Not just DJ Premier Productions, all kinds so it’s gonna be a long ride of more greatness.”
Check out the dates below.

Ah man, Preemo performing live with musicians that sounds a hell of a good time! Hopefully you add a few gigs to your tour, I was hoping to go to a concert in Belgium or Denmark. Saw you back in 2013 in Brussels (Bazaar club) that was dope, thanks for everything you’ve done for real hip hop music brother
