Kings Go Forth from Wax Poetics on Vimeo.
I've been listening to a lot of what I like to call nu-funk: current funk bands with a decidedly retro early-70's vibe. My dive into the likes of the Budos Band, El Michels Affair, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Orgone and others has led me to discover Kings Go Forth. Their combination of up-tempo funky drums, plenty of horns, tight instrumentation and fantastic vocals from Black Wolf definitely makes them stand out in the crowd.
Coming to the Cedar Cultural Center October 7th.
