New Primitives was founded in 2003 by Stanley Kipper, a veteran drummer of the Southern California music scene. Leading up to the formation of the Prims, Stan had established his presence by playing with such legendary acts as Jay Ferguson, Joe Walsh, The Bee Gees, Randy Meisner, Minnie Ripperton, Gypsy and Bill Withers, as well as acting as producer on many albums. He enlisted long time friend, collaborator, percussion expert, and former Gypsy bandmate Chico Perez, who himself had performed with recognizable names like Crow, Seventh Wave, and Colla. With Stan on drums and lead vocals and Chico on congas and backing vocals they, along with a handful of other musicians formed the initial line­up of New Primitives, and the journey began. The band has performed all across the midwest and recently to the west coast. New Primitives have performed/toured with Taj Mahal, Ziggy Marley, Neville Brothers, Mickey Hart, The English Beat, Black Uhuru, Ivan Neville's Dumpsta Funk, Medeski Martin and Wood and many others. New Primitives are five-time Minnesota Music Award winners and the band features two St. Louis Classic Rock Hall of Fame members and Midwest Rock and Country Hall of Fame inductees in Stan and Chico. This collection of talent have proven themselves to truly be one of Minnesota’s best kept secrets, and soon the world will know New Primitives!

"Whether you want to come out and dance, get a crash course in Afro-Cuban rhythms, or just sit back and be completely entertained, this band delivers the goods." -- Drumming News Network
