   About The Hub Kings
The Hub Kings’ sound is a vibe-a-delic tapestry ranging in influences from bebop jazz and swanky lounge to the contemporary sounds of artists like Medeski, Martin, and Wood and The Greyboy Allstars. Taking cues from keyboard masters such as Jimmy Smith and Charles Earland, the Hub Kings generate a sound centered around the lush, smokey tone of the Hammond organ, as played by multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Tristram. Complimenting and accompanying him are Rob Jones on the semi-hollow body guitar and "Bongo" Dave Smela on drums. The Hub Kings are always prepared to add color and texture to your favorite venue or private affair.

Hi Guys! Love the tunes - thank you for sharing them. There is another Jersey based funk band I really dig that you might want to check out just for fun: www. myspace. com/milesbandmusic I recently played a show with them in NY - they may be a good group to team up with on some gigs! Take care and best wishes, Cody
