About Ed Meme & The Forms (now THE IMPELLERS)

UPDATE FOR 2008/09 Ed Meme & The Forms are changing. After being offered a release by UK label Freestyle Records a decision was made to change the name of the band to something a bit less of a mouthful.

We will be releasing a single and an album on Freestyle in Spring/Summer 2009 under our new name ......

... The Impellers

The Impellers, formerly Ed Meme & The Forms were formed late in 2006 and have since gained support from a fair number of people who know things about dirty deep funk and super heavy soul.

Some reaction to recent releases:

"Hard as Nails" - Snowboy

"Another cracking piece of modern funk" - Craig Charles, BBC 6Music

"superb - easily the best new funk tracks i've heard since baby charles - these guys have the potential to be even better!" - Ian Wright (Deep Funk DJ, collector, album compiler & legend)

“...There are so many bands who inevitably go back to the root but are not always successful in providing the organic fruit, I feel you guys are an exception...” ‘Da Buzzboy’ Fitzroy – Solar FM

"Where is my fire drencher - that's hot!!!" Dusty / Jazz & Milk Rec.

Featuring dirty hammond, searing soul vocals, heavy horns and a rhythm section that drives like Satan's own Maserati, this is a live experience you can't afford to miss ...

... And music you can afford to buy ... from here:
