Live in the Area of Prague

The Echo Beach subdivision Dude Records proudly presents the release of a fine musical and visual masterpiece. Best known as the rhythm section in the Grammy Award winning band Living Color, Doug Wimbish and Will Calhoun showcase their individual talents, performing as a bass/drum duo called Head Fake. As Head Fake, Doug and Will have the opportunity to display a virtuosity often overshadowed when playing in a more traditional support role. So when they were scheduled to play the Lucerna Music Bar in Prague, Doug and Will welcomed a proposal from local filmmaker Petr Tomaides to document the event. Effectively capturing the night's high-energy performance, and later editing and cutting the film in an appropriately frenetic style, Tomaides has allowed US the opportunity to ride along as Doug and Will explore the outer limits of sound, opening our eyes (and ears) to what is musically possible by "just two guys." Live "In the Area of Prague" is a fast-paced, day-in-the-life travelogue of Head Fake - from Doug and Will's arrival in Prague - to an interesting afternoon sound check - backstage, as Czech reporters ask Doug about his improvisational style and vivid musical past - and of course, on stage for the evening's inspired performance. With a level of intensity rarely seen in such a small club, Doug and Will command the stage and conquer the room with their electrically-charged set, combining their own collaborative compositions with rarities out of Doug's industrial/funk and hip-hop past. After experiencing Head Fake live in performance, it's apparent why these two musicians are considered one of the finest rhythm sections in rock 'n' roll.
