Sounds Like	"The PutBacks lay down a groove exactly how I want to hear it: With super-heavy authentic tones, attitude and feel…" - Lance Ferguson (The Bamboos/Lanu) "If the JB’s had their own monorail, the Putbacks have a steam train that runs right from Australia directly to every record player in the world – DJ Prestige www.djprestige.net " ”Diamond Cutter is fresh — it’s cheesy enough to make white people dance but it’s not cheesy at all… it’s got the same kinda swinging feel as Tighten Up or Razor Blade, but still grooves hard like a JB/Pee Wee Ellis 45. Party starter! CAUTION: May induce white man’s overbite!” (R) Rex (Northside Records) www.northsiderecords.com.au

About The PutBacks

The PutBacks came into formation in 2007 after years as a backing band for Kate Ceberano. The PutBacks have performed as part of PBS 106.7 fm Live Music Week (2008/9), at Melbourne’s premier funk night ‘Soul-A-Go-Go’ and have opened for Australian premier funk outfit The Bamboos as well as ‘The Menahan Street Band featuring Charles Bradley’ during their recent Australian tour in 2009. The PutBacks instrumental funk-killer-floor-filler ‘The Diamond Cutter’, released March 2009 as a split 7” 45 on Hope Street Recordings, has received healthy rotation on Australian, US and UK radio, featured on Canadian DJ Double K’s “The New Funk Mix” available at www.parkdalefunk.com and profiled on DJ Prestige’s blog page www.djprestige.net. The PutBacks strengths are a deep funky groove with a raw, melodic sound.
