INFECTIOUS GROOVES, the funkadelic side project of
SUICIDAL TENDENCIES frontman
Mike Muir, will film its April 26, 2008 sold-out concert in Paris, France for an upcoming DVD.
INFECTIOUS GROOVES recently announced the addition of guitarist
Tim Stewart and drummer
Eric Moore to the group's ranks. The band's current lineup is as follows:
Mike Muir - Vocals
Dean Pleasants - Guitar
Tim Stewart - Guitar
Steve Brunner - Bass
Eric Moore - Drums
INFECTIOUS GROOVES was formed soon after
Robert Trujillo joined
SUICIDAL TENDENCIES in 1989.
Mike Muir and
Trujillo got together with a few friends and started writing songs centered more around the bass, but with the intent of giving everyone else a whole lot of freedom.
"
SEX PISTOLS and
PARLIAMENT were my two favorite bands when I was young," says
Muir. "People think they are completely different but I saw a lot of similarities, even if musically they were categorized as completely different styles. There's something beautiful about breaking rules that never should have been made."
