It is being reported that singer-songwriter/guitarist Dave Matthews has formed a new band, dubbed The Nauts. Don’t worry all you Dave Matthews Band fans, though. Matthews is also working on new material with said crew. Nonetheless, the Virginia artist has aligned himself with Bob Dylan guitarist Charlie Sexton, his brother Will, and drummer Brady Blade. The collective has already recorded some material, which has been further detailed below:
What started out as a fun project for Brady Blade to get some musicians together and jam—such as Dave Matthews, Jakob Dylan, Charlie Sexton and Will Sexton—has turned into a full-fledged band called The Nauts, and this newly formed group has been working on a forthcoming record. Blade, a rock/pop/country drummer, record producer, composer, and Blade Studios partner—along with Scott Crompton (executive producer and CEO) and mix engineer Chris Bell—is also a part of The Nauts, who recorded the new material in the Russ Berger-designed Studio A on a 48-channel SSL Duality SE. Other equipment of note includes Neve 1081 and API 512mic preamps; Universal Audio LA-2A compressors; and Telefunken 251, Mojave 300 and Royer R-122 mics. The Nauts produced the tracks, with Bell serving as engineer.
Again, Matthews has not forfeited his duties as frontman of DMB, as they are also working on fresh material. The Nauts, however, are expected to make their first live appearance in Shreveport as a part of the Unscene! concert installment.
