MAGIC DICK & SHUN NG
INTERVIEWED ON
THE RAY SHASHO RADIO SHOW
Our Very Special Guests Today is the collaborating
musical duo of
MAGIC DICK & SHUN NG
MAGIC DICK the legendary harmonica player for Boston’s J. Geils Band has
recently partnered up with guitar and vocal sensation, Shun Ng, to
create one of the most dynamic musical acts to come out of Boston in a
long time. The music is soulful blues, rockin’ yet thoughtful and
performed by arguably two of the top musicians at their respective instruments. Since
1969, Magic Dick has toured the world playing and blowing away clubs and
stadiums with the J. Geils Band. He explains the
formation of the duo:
“From the moment I first heard
Shun Ng’s CD “Funky Thumb Stuff” I knew that a manifest musical
collaboration was about to happen. Shun’s sound simply made me feel
very alive and induced in me a synchronous alignment of musical DNA as if it
was his intention as well as mine all along! I helped it along by asking his
manager, Ralph Jaccodine to introduce us at his office. A long and
enlightening conversation happened on that day of our first meeting and now we
are a duo and I couldn’t be more delighted.”
SHUN NG was born in Chicago, raised in Singapore now based out of Boston. At 24 years old, he is already an international star, a soulful, world-class guitarist, vocalist, and electric performer who in a short period of time, has caught the attention of the top players in the music world including Quincy Jones who said: “When you see Shun Ng, you won’t believe your eyes nor your ears – he belies all stereotypes, all premonitions. I was simply blown away by both his soul and his science – his creativity and his uniqueness is astounding.”
“In this collaboration with Magic Dick,” Shun says, “we wanted to make music in a way that no one had quite done before while remaining grounded in our roots. Magic Dick brings a powerhouse attack with ferocious precision and a killer groove to this duo. I have great respect for him, he has seemingly done it all, but is still constantly trying to push the boundaries of music and chase the best in himself, a true artist. To be working with a true Boston legend is a real privilege.”
