Electrifying live performers, their renowned show sees them regularly sell out upstairs at Ronnie Scott?s, The Bussey Building, Hootananny, and Pizza Express, with festival appearances including Bestival, Secret Garden Party, London Jazzfest, Ealing Blues Festival and Wisselfeesten Belgium.
Their sound has garnered support from Jazz FM, Resonance FM, as well as established funk bands such as Galactic from New Orleans and The New Mastersounds in the UK.
