Jammin' down under

Let me know if this sounds odd to you: a bunch of youngsters in Australia, all born during the '90s -which means that they are all in their early twenties right now- have secretly managed to escape the synthetic reality of Lady Gaga and of all these popular -in their peak- artists that have a tremendous effect on these ages and do their own thing. That is a ten-piece band that works on a kind of music that makes you scratch your head with a silly, surprised look when you find out about their actual age. Soul-funk music with a '70s aroma. "Soul music for the after hours, for the solitary dancers and the lonely hearts" as they characterize their own sound. Sounds weird to you? Maybe, but it's one of those cases that make you smile from your heart out to your mouth. I can't even begin to tell you how much I loooove hearing about these stuff and this kind of people. Infinite thumbs up. I'll keep my thumb up till it hurts.



This is their new album that was just released from Hope Street Recordings.


And this is them. Jammin' in one of their best.
