Friday, May 31 was a very warm way to welcome the month of June. Mother's Wine and FiKus came together for a steamy Good Love Entertainment family rager at 10th St. Live in Kenilworth, NJ. There was something in the air that was reminiscent of the Tommy Fox’s days. It was truly a joyous gathering of familiar faces and new friends!
Mother’s Wine’s set took flight with the signature “airy-mystique" of “Blue Moon". They brought it down a bit, just to bring it back up with a soaring, high energy “Full Circle”. Then they threw the audience for a loop with a super-fresh cover of Daft Punk’s recent hit, “Get Lucky!” It was a fun one for the band to do and a dope sing-along surprise for all of their fans.
The room just kept on peaking with the funky philosophical shred-work of the song “All In the Same”. It was really hot on that dance floor, Nick’s high hat mirroring the sizzle of the glistening dancers. The cooling effect was in full swing as Mother’s Wine smoothly transitioned to “Be Here Now”, bringing everyone to the present moment. Their perfect timing must be the magic caused by their pre-show huddles.
They continued on with “Floor For the Night” to get things steamy again and ended with a very special, sophisticated and rapturous “555”. As a nod to their good friends who were about to take the stage, they teased FiKus' “Michael Phelps” a couple of times throughout the “555” Jam. They left the stage dripping with Good Love and leaving everybody anticipating their Late Night Set with Shwizz at Opple Topple on June 15.
