The New MFSB™

The NEW MFSB made its debut performance across the street from the headquarters of the world famous Philadelphia International Records. They played the Kimmel Center (home of the Philadelphia Orchestra) in the fall of 05. Since then they have played many successful engagements, including the Wachovia Center, and Unity Day with Steve Harvey, for over a million people. Everyone agrees that The NEW MFSB is special. It kept all of the soul of the original funky orchestra, yet it has expanded the audio and visual excitement, even further.

One of the things that makeThe NEW MFSB so unique is that the members have recorded or performed with more Platinum-selling acts than any group in history. So they understand R&B music and entertainment in a way few other artists have been able to. MFSB knows how to have a good time at a concert setting, in the studio, or in any situation in which they find themselves. Their specialty is getting the audience “in the zone” – quickly.

John Ingram – lead vocals – was a staff writer at Philadelphia International Records. He recorded, and toured with Patti La Belle, was featured in the film, “Standing in the Shadows of Motown,” and occasionally tours with the Funk Brothers as their lead singer. Carla Benson – background vocals – was with MFSB from the beginning. She recorded 80% of all of the Philly Sound Hits. She is quick to point out she only recorded 50% of the duds. She has over two hundred Gold and Platinum Albums to her credit. Her brother, Keith Benson – drummer - recorded almost all of the Philadelphia International artists. He recorded the Sound of Philadelphia’s anthem, and their biggest hit, ever, “Ain’t No Stopping Us Now.” Dennis Harris – guitar - has more Gold and Platinum Albums than anyone in the business. He is one of few musicians in the world with over 30 Gold and Platinum Record Awards. Michael Clark represents “New MFSB.” Jazzy, Funky, Fresh, Cool, Talented, he’s from New York and completes the front line of the group. They represent the core of The NEW MFSB. They are committed to keeping the Sound of Philadelphia alive, and they are committed to keeping classic R&B alive, and vibrant, by "playing it the right way."

MFSB is as current today as they were in the 1970’s. They are the hottest group in advertising. Television commercials, advertising everything from beer to trucks use their music. And Hollywood is in the MFSB catalogue, also.

Mother, Father Sister, Brother. “MFSB” - feel them for the first time, all over again.
