DO IT NOW


DO IT NOW features John Sheldon in a new trio collaboration with Paul Richmond, who was recently named National Beat Poet Laureate USA by the National Beat Poetry Foundation, and percussionist extraordinaire Tony Vacca of World Rhythms Ensemble. They combine evocative poetry, storytelling, and insightful political commentary with an improvised musical groove to share vision and hope for our planet in these troubled times.


FOUR STARS! Part political rant, part history lesson and wholly musical – DO IT NOW is a serious call to (dis)arms leavened by moments of dark humour and highly charged musicianship.

— ROB ADAMS, THE HERALD (SCOTLAND)


FOUR STARS! American trio Sheldon, Richmond and Vacca provide a powerful fusion of music, words and percussion in this enthralling 50 minute show.”

— Mike Took, WRITE OUTLOUD (SCOTLAND)


DO IT NOW has some of the feel of a late-night session in a Beat Generation-era club.”

— CHRIS ROHMANN, VALLEY ADVOCATE (U.S.)
