Rusted Root
Rusted Root Carries On Their Spiritual Musical Movement with The MovementRusted Root's current release "The Movement, means a new work ethic to me - it's going from the industrial age to the individual spiritual age. I feel everyone should devote all their actions to all that is love, healing and pragmatic. We're seeing the growing pains of this right nowthe world is splitsome people are fearful and fighting it with all their might Rusted Root is trying to help with thisthis is our movement!!" shares Rusted Root founder, front man, songwriter, singer/guitarist Michael Glabicki. Having collaborated with one another for two decades, Rusted Root, has honed the perfect combination of musical intuition, freedom and virtuosity, which has allowed them to organically shape shift their music into their own distinct and undeniable vision. With eight albums under their belt, over three million records sold worldwide and countless nights on the road, Rusted Root, transcends age, generations, cultures and musical styles. Their music has been featured in films like Ice Age, Twister and Matilda, TV shows like New Girl, Ally McBeal, Charmed and Chuck as well as recent Enterprise Rent-A-Car commercials. Bassist and vocalist Patrick Norman says, "From the very first time we played music together, I knew we had something special. The music and the enjoyment of creating and playing with one another I feel is the driving force behind this band." The powerhouse ensemble's sweat-inducing and hypnotic live performances have allowed them to tour alongside everyone from Santana, Dave Matthews Band, The Allman Brothers Band, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page's reunion tour and countless others. Rusted Root's Shanachie debut, The Movement (10/30/12), is an energized and poetic collection of originals that capture the Pittsburgh based unit at their best. One of the highlights on The Movement is the rhythmically charged and scintillating "In Our Sun." The trance-like rhythmic patterns and Sub-Saharan drenched chanting reach a fevered pitch and then fade like a mirage. Liz explains that the members of Rusted Root are drawn to and have explored virtually every form of music. "I am very inspired vocally by anything from Indian to African to Middle Eastern sounds and scales having grown up with a lot of Hebrew music" she says. Michael Glabicki's cites the Bee Gees, Elvis Costello, Neil Young, Tony Childs, Black Keys, Black Sabbath and various Afro Pop music as among his influences. Glabicki's vocals shine on the lilting ballad "Fossil Man," and on "Fortunate Freaks" Rusted Root lets it all go and rocks out hard with the song's energizing bridge. "Sun And Magic" showcases dazzling guitar and bass lines that shimmer like a summer breeze. Glabicki's signature Tremelo picking and acoustic-electric guitar amplification shine throughout The Movement. Rusted Root gets down right gritty on "Up And All Around" while "Something's On My Mind" continues to solidify their place as one of the most versatile and innovative bands on the creative music scene. In 1992 Rusted Root released Cruel Sun independently and two years later, while signed to Mercury, they released their platinum-selling breakthrough, When I Woke, which spawned the Top 40 hit "Send Me On My Way," that went on to chart on Billboard's Hot 100. In 2004, the band released the double album Rusted Root Live on their own Touchy Pegg label, following the re-release of the newly re-mastered Cruel Sun in 2003. Rusted Root continued to tour relentlessly between the release of Cruel Sun and the 2009 release of Stereo Rodeo.The past few years have found Rusted Root on a never-ending tour. A major career highlight in the Springtime of 2014 and 2015 was touring with The Wailers Michael Glabicki says, "The Wailers are what music in it's spiritual form is about and I feel it was an honor to play with them" And bassist Patrick Norman effuses "They're legends, they're icons, it's rock and roll. It brings back memories of being five years old listening to I shot the Sherriff." As they have in the past, Rusted Root is currently working on their next record by honing their new songs while on tour. Already fan favorites, "Save Me Back" "Promised Land" "Such A Man" and "Tumbleweed" are some of the new tracks they've been performing to an audience eager for new record. The band is looking forward to putting the finishing touches on their new collection of songs, and aim to release a new record in the next year.
