Dave Stewart is about to launch his own web TV show called The Ringmaster.
The Ringmaster will be a bi-weekly show featuring “music and bizarre things” with special guests.
The first guest will be actor Andy Garcia (The Untouchables, The Godfather Part III). “He is a real mad Cuban music fanatic,” Dave tells Noise11.com. “When he heard I was doing it he wrote a theme tune ‘The Ringmaster’ and he comes on the show and he plays it on the piano”.
It will be a show where anything can happen. “Then I have a guest called Elijah Kelley who is in a movie called The Butler with Oprah Winfrey and Forest Whitaker,” he says. “He is a great actor but also a great musician and record producer. Then he brings on these two girls from Somalia that he has produced”.
‘The Ringmaster’ will also have its own regular house band. “I have a band on the stage with Sheila E playing drums and the band Ozomatli,” he says. “I can do what I want and invite whoever I want. It is really good fun. It has music and bizarre things.”
Dave Stewart will premiere of the first episode on the BiteSize Network soon.
