LA発ソウル・ジャズ・オルガン・トリオによるSly & The Family Stoneの名曲カヴァー!


'60sから'70sを髣髴とさせるオーセンティックなオルガン・ジャズを主軸にニュー・オリンズ・グルーヴやアフロ・ファンク・テイストを融合した現行LAファンク随一の逸材!!

Jungle FireやOzomatliの活動で知られるドラマーMichael DuffyがTedeschi Trucks Bandのサポートメンバーとしても活躍したハモンド奏者Carey FrankとギタリストMatt Hornbeckと結成したソウル・ジャズ・トリオ。

The White Blinds are back with the first follow up single since their debut LP “Get To Steppin” was released last Fall 2018. This newest 45 features two heat filled tracks that bring you a familiar sound, but in The White Blinds own flavor of Soul Jazz. The second installment of F-Spot Records “Homage Series” (cover on the A done in the band stylings with an original on the flip) this “Homage 45” features the “Sly and the Family Stone” classic “Sing A Simple Song,” re-imagined as an uptempo, powerful, and organ driven banger that will surely get you movin’ and grovin’. On the B-side we get the original composition “Klapp Back” which takes elements of soul, jazz, funk, and latin melodic elements mashed up into another dance floor hit. The White Blinds feature world renowned Drummer and Percussionist Michael Duffy who holds down a tight rhythmic center, while Hammond Organ virtuoso Carey Frank and L.A. based session Guitarist Matt Hornbeck drive the music forward through interlocking melodic and rhythmic stylings that seamlessly flow through one another in a tight knit and funky fashion
