New York chef Sam Mason has a deep voice, tattooed sleeves, hair the color of midnight, and he knows how to wield a butcher's knife. We took notice of the guy when he delivered to the world wide webosphere an original web series, Dinner With The Band, in which he invited indie-music darlings to Brooklyn to cook up something good.

Needless to say, it didn't take long before people in the teevee took notice, thus IFC's snatching up the series and preparing to air it in Spring 2010. You can catch a sneak peek serving beginning Tuesday, November 24 at 11:00 p.m. EST/PST on the network's Tuesday night programming block. In the meantime, here's a taste of what's to come, as Sam gets salty with Sharon Jones And The Dap Kings:
