You can practically smell the gumbo and jambalaya of Bourbon Street as the piano boogie of “A La Modeliste” starts to simmer. Tomorrow night, Tuesday, February 14, on CBS-TV’s “The Late Show with David Letterman,” Mark Ronson will perform the song—an old fashioned jazz number he takes down a new road—featuring Erykah Badu, Zigaboo Modeliste, and members of The Dap-Kings. Watch the official video to “A La Modeliste” here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVWgwCyZ3z4.
“A La Modeliste” is one of the five songs created in RE:GENERATION, the music documentary feature directed by Amir Bar-Lev (The Tillman Story, My Kid Could Paint That) and produced in association with the GRAMMY®s and presented by Hyundai Veloster. It examines music’s past, present and future, while yielding five revolutionary collaborations helmed by Mark Ronson, DJ Premier, The Crystal Method, Skrillex and Pretty Lights in the process. It can be seen in over 180 theatres across the country for a one-night engagement this Thursday, February 16, with encore screenings in select venues to occur Thursday, February 23. RE:GENERATION will also be featured at SXSW during both the film and music portions of the festival March 9-18 in Austin, TX.
