The Doctors are in...
And their prescription of choice is a proverbial hair-of-the-dog, one-two punch. You know, treat the ailment with a dose of cure by the same name.
"It's simple. If you're in a funk, well ya gotta go and get the funk. It'll fix you straight up," says Dr Walter Hemingway, medical chief of staff for The Root Doctors, South Carolina's preeminent feel-good clinic. "Music - funky music- is the remedy, man."
Combine heaping portions of bass, rhythm guitar and brass with uniquely hip, feel-good grooves and you have the beginnings of a healing party that is safe to administer in massive doses to any member of the family, ages 8 to 80.
Whenever the band performs, it never disappoints, always keeping an emphasis oh having fun and making fans happy.
"Creating new music remains high on our agenda, but we also will continue to perform our favorite class dance and party tunes. we enjoy them as much as the fans do," Hemingway said. "our fans have been phenomenal, and The Doctors always have been about pleasing a crowd."
