DIGITAL JONES - live - 2010.29.July

Tonight we celebrate the new album launch from funk/soul/electro band Digital Jones

Digital Jones are a wee band with a massive soul.  Stomping all over the standard musical fair these electronic songsters have pounced and unleashed their signature sound upon the unsuspecting public.  Combining live and sample sounds, Digital Jones make canny knowing music.  Through the power of the MPC this band have corrupted Phil Mcbride's fat upright bass grooves with some flithy, flatulent synth and disitlled driving hard 80's electro beats with fierce live drums from tight as a button Jamie Graham.  Throw in some Prince-esque horns and compelling key melodies from Chuck Dearness and front it with the rich and sassy vocals of screaming red headed diva Nikki Kent and you got yourself a real heavy sound.

This is music with the hard driving edge of electro at its most vital, but it is designed to be made and played live and Digital Jones were born to play out.  Their chemistry and energy really come to light in their live show and this was made all the more apparent after an incredible sold out gig supporting soul legend Marlena Shaw. 

Their eargerly- awaited debut album will be premiered tonight!
