Losing time

 

These jazz-funk guys love to funk up their jazz to get people dancing. The line-up is drums, bass, keyboards, guitar, saxophone, occasional trumpet and vocals. This is the band you want for funky instrumentals, top latin-jazz tunes with a little bit of blues and soul.  Get the party started with jazzfunkwest.

"There's nothing better than getting a good groove going and when you start playing a classic bassline by any seventies funk band it's just the best thing.  It's also great fun changing songs around and giving them a latin, jazz or funk feel - it seems to make people smile."  Phil - bass.
