If you like your music a little old school funky, you’ll want to check out George Porter Jr and Runnin’ Pardners at their February 12 show at the Back Booth in downtown Orlando.
Porter is best known as the bassist for the legendary New Orleans band The Funky Meters, but he’s also done session work with artists as diverse as Paul McCartney, Jimmy Buffett, David Byrne, Tori Amos, and Patti LaBelle.
Porter also finds time to front his own project, the Runnin’ Pardners, which has received many accolades on the jam band and festival scene. He has assembled some seasoned and talented musicians to join him on this project: Brint Anderson (guitar), Michael Lemmler (keyboards), Khris Royal (saxophone), and Terrence Houston (drums).
