Audiences at San Francisco's Boom Boom Room, Charleston's Pour House, Soho in Santa Barbara and Twins Jazz in Washington DC are wise to this brew of instrumental funk with jazz overtones and dub attitude.
"A unique sounding instrumental trio (sax/bamboo flutes-bass-drums) with a heavy-grooving jazz-funk-dub sound."
"San Francisco-based jazz-funk trio Hipbones puts its, um, hip twist on Miles Davis and Charlie Parker standards, and ably reinterprets songs by Sting and Cream with funky chops. Hipbones' originals are just as feisty. Even diehard traditionalists will have to take notes when the band performs at the Evening Muse in Charlotte"
Thank you for the Friend Request. Your music is hot! I especially like "Jazzoo." There is nothing like the sound of the sax. Much respect and stay blessed!
