  • Leroi Moore: a Biography
    LEROI MOORE: A BIOGRAPHY by Bobby Daryl Fuson II A DOCTORAL DOCUMENT Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Major: Music Under the Supervision of Professor Paul Haar Lincoln, Nebraska May, 2016 LEROI MOORE: A BIOGRAPHY Bobby Fuson II, D.M.A. University of Nebraska, 2016 Advisor: Paul Haar Few artists thrive at the crossroads of musicality, originality, and popularity. Musicians and critics often laud the first two and neglect the latter. Any imbalance in ratios between them that tips toward popularity is balanced by diminishing the creative elements. Saxophonist LeRoi Moore (1961-2008) of the Dave Matthews Band was one artist who balanced all three. While his musical output was prodigious very little is known about him. He was a reclusive figure onstage and in public, shunning interviews and at times literally the spotlight, despite being a founding member of one of the most commercially successful bands of the last two decades. Musically Moore was firmly planted in the jazz tradition for which his instrument has become known. A gifted improviser and arranger, the quality of his musical contributions was consistently high and pure. Moore’s music was creative, original, and popular in equal measure. A biography of his life and analysis of his works are essential to recognizing his place in the history of American music.

  • Come Tomorrow, Dave Matthews Band's New Album, Is out Today
    COME TOMORROW, DAVE MATTHEWS BAND’S NEW ALBUM, IS OUT TODAY “‘Come Tomorrow’… earnestly embraces fatherhood, commitment, lifelong romance and hope for the next generations.” – Jon Pareles, The New York Times, Critic’s Pick Download/stream Come Tomorrow here: http://smarturl.it/DMBCT Today, RCA Records released Come Tomorrow, Dave Matthews Band’s ninth studio album and first since 2012. The band’s North American summer tour continues tomorrow, June 9, with a show at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, VA. See below for itinerary. Tickets can be purchased now at http://davematthewsband.com. In a New York Times’ Critic’s Pick review, Jon Pareles observed, “willed optimism fills the songs on ‘Come Tomorrow,’ while cynicism and irony are nowhere within earshot…each song notes the fears and sorrows it’s determined to overcome. The music does that, with consolation in its melodies and a life force in its rhythms.” Rolling Stone said, “[Matthews gets] quiet, contemplative, and unusually sweet on songs both lush (‘Here On Out’) and spare (‘Black and Blue Bird’). Other highlights include the towering, horn-heavy ‘Idea of You,’ which might be the band’s most radio-ready song since ‘Crash Into Me.’” In a review of the lead single, “Samurai Cop (Oh Joy Begin),” People said, “Matthews’ vocals sweep you into a carpe diem fury. Accompanied by Carter Beauford’s thrumming snare and Tim Reynolds’ haunting guitar riffs, the front-man reminds us ‘Let’s not forget these early days / Remember we began the same / We lose our way of fear and pain / Oh joy, begin.’ “SPIN praised the “anthemic” song and Billboard declared it “a plea for unity.” Brandi Carlile harmonizes with Matthews on the shimmering title track.
