Marc Brownstein’s Star Kitchen quartet kicked of their inaugural North American fall tour on Thursday night with a show at Gypsy Sally’s in Washington, DC. The four-piece rock/jam outfit comprised of Disco Biscuits‘ bassist Brownstein, drummer Marlon Lewis, keyboardist Rob Marscher and guitarist Danny Mayer provided fans with what looked to be a fantastic headlining debut for the jam scene’s newest supergroup project. To make the night even more fun for fans in attendance, the quartet welcomed New Mastersounds’ guitarist Eddie Roberts to play on a mix of songs throughout the performance.

Star Kitchen filled their setlist with a selection of old-school covers including James Brown‘s “Soul Power”, Kool & The Gang‘s “Let the Music Take Your Mind”, and even Grant Green’s “Jan Jan” for their encore. Roberts came out to join them for all three songs, and his presence was even teased out by Brownstein via his Twitter showing the New Mastersounds member hanging out with the band prior to the show.

Star Kitchen made their live debut back over the summer with a performance during the first weekend of Michigan’s Electric Forest festival. The band is currently scheduled to continue introducing their live material to fans along the east coast with three more shows set for this weekend in Pennsylvania (Friday), Massachusetts (Saturday) and New York City (Sunday). Fans planning on attending the band’s shows should be ready for more special guests, as Star Kitchen will welcome familiar names including Robert Randolph, Lady Alma, Chill Moody and Trey Anastasio Band saxophonist James Casey for Friday night’s show at the Ardmore Music Hall. Addison Groove Project saxophonist Dave Adams will sit in with the band on Saturday at Electric Haze, with Eric Krasno and Snarky Puppy horn players Chris Bullock and Mike “Maz” Maher also set to join in on the fun this Sunday night at Brooklyn Bowl.
