The legendary MANDRILL came “outta da bush” five decades ago, pushing the musical envelope with a hard-driving combination of heavy horns and heavy percussion deftly layered on a complex mix of Funk, Jazz, Latin, R&B, Rock and Afro-Caribbean sounds, pioneering a genre called “World Music.”
Mandrill formed in Brooklyn, NY in 1968. The original band included three brothers: Carlos Wilson (trombone, percussion, vocals), Lou Wilson (1941-2013) (trumpet, percussion, vocals), and Ric Wilson (sax, percussion, vocals). The Wilson brothers were born in Panama and grew up in the Bedford–Stuyvesant area of Brooklyn. Band members over the years have included: Claude “Coffee” Cave II (keyboards, percussion, vocals), Bundy Cenac (bass guitar), Fudgie Kae Solomon (bass, vocals), Charles Padro (drums, percussion, vocals), Neftali Santiago (drums, percussion, vocals), Omar Mesa (guitar, vocals), Doug Rodriguez (lead guitar, vocals), Wilfredo “Wolf” Wilson (bass guitar, percussion, vocals), Juaquin Jessup (lead guitar), Tommy Trujillo (lead guitar), Andre Locke (drums), Brian Allsop (bass), and Eddie Summers (drums, vocals).
The current Mandrill line up includes brothers Carlos Wilson, Doc Ric Wilson, and Wilfredo"Wolf" Wilson, along with Mark Rey (lead guitar), Stacy Lamont Sydnor (drums), Derrick "Dock" Murdock (bass guitar), Eli Brueggemann (keyboards, synthesizer), and Keith Barry (viola, saxophone, flute).For more visit mandrillexperience.com
