Click here for competition rules and instructions. Closing date for entries is 31st August.
Vocalist Dionne Charles joined us at Cargo in London for the `Plug & Play' album launch on Friday. You can listen to her incredible voice on the new single King Comforter, released Monday 16th June (vinyl 7"/itunes) and also the featured track on the NMS juke box this month.
Our next American adventure starts on July 9th on a riverboat in NYC and finishes in Louisville Kentucky on July 27th. Check the tour page to find out where we're playing in between.
The Blue Nile super-jam which took place before the NMS late-night show Saturday night: The Stanton Moore Trio expanded to include Eddie and Pete, Robert Walter, Will Bernard, Big Sam, Topaz, Cheme, Jonathan Batiste, Trombone Shorty, and probably more... Jolly good fun, this Jazzfest business.
The new album - Plug & Play - will be released in UK on Monday June 30th on CD/LP and on itunes a week earlier. It features vocalist Dionne Charles (whose own band Baby Charles released their debut album earlier this year) on 4 of the 11 tracks, plus there are appearances from master percussionist Sam Bell (This is What We Do; Live at La Cova.) Early DJ responses have been extremely positive ("Their best yet," etc...) but you'll have to judge for yourselves when it comes out. We will be posting sneaky previews on the jukebox in the run-up to the release, so check back often!
