The City Champs’ new album The Set Up is out now, and the
critics are giving it an enthusiastic response.
After touring the East Coast, the Champs returned to Memphis
to take part in two new projects. They taped a travel segment
for MSN.com, then took part in the filming of a new Memphis
musicdocumentary. Tentatively titled Memphis Revival, this
Cody Dickinson/Martin Shore produced film is showcases icons
of Memphis’ music scene playing with up and coming young bands.
On November 29th, The City Champs collaborated with the
harplegend Charlie Musselwhite to film a segment at Electraphonic
Studios. The band recorded a live show for Beale Street Caravan.
They were joined by saxophonist Tom Link and trumpeter Marc
Franklin for this globally syndicated radio program hosted by
Sid Selvidge.
Back in New York City, the burgeoning designer Billy Reid, (Vogue
Fashion Award winner) has been spinning the Champs during his
runway shows, landing their name in Vanity Fair’s blog and the
Wall Street Journal.
