It’s a double 12” Limited Edition vinyl album, with Dan ‘JD73’ Goldman on Keys, Hamlet Luton on Bass and Gordon Kilroy hitting the Drums. This this powerhouse Rhodes-piano-led fusion-funk trio was established in Leeds, UK, in 2012.

Between them, Dan, Hamlet and Gordon have worked with a veritable who’s-who of funk, soul and electronic artists including Nightmares On Wax, Morcheeba, Peven Everett, Tito Jackson, Leon Ware, Nate James, Pee Wee Ellis, Natasha Watts, Eddie Roberts and The Haggis Horns. This is only a few.

The band has also supported artists including Alice Russell, Cymande and José James and wowed crowds at prestigious venues and nights including Ronnie Scotts, Jazz Re:freshed and Manchester, Gateshead, Cambridge and London Jazz festivals.

Playing adventurous and hard-hitting original compositions, they are heavily influenced by legendary funk-fusion artists of the 70’s, including Herbie Hancock and The Headhunters, Bob James, George Duke, Patrice Rushen, Jeff Lorber, Brian Auger and Chick Corea. You can hear their inspirations blended together with their own unique twist.
