Artist description We are 7-piece funk/jazz outfit, currently based loosely in Guernsey, Channel Islands. In the year-and-a-half we've been together in this format, we've played and written an enourmous variety of brilliant music, to a massive variety of audiences, from pubs to weddings, clubs to festivals, parties and functions. Our music is inspired and fuelled by such fantastic musicians and writters as Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, James Brown, Burt Bacharach, Air, James Taylor Quartet, Dusty Springfield, Peggy Lee, Gershwin... and literally hundreds of other legendary musical minds. Everything we play has it's feet firmly planted in "The Zone Where Funk Exists Here", which is a wonderful galaxy of minds, converging through good times and great music.
