Funk In Deep Freeze [Blue Note Funky Jazz]

About this event

The band draws inspiration from the golden era of 1960s and 70s jazz funk, performing compositions spanning from Jimmy Smith to Freddie Hubbard, alongside funk-era works by Herbie Hancock and Grant Green.

Featuring Thom Whitworth on trumpet and guitar, Paul Deats on Fender Rhodes and Moog synth, Simon Paterson on bass, and Stevie Smith on drums, the group delivers soulful swing punctuated by bass-heavy grooves and extended saxophone solos. This performance showcases the band's shared musicianship and creative approach to funk-influenced material.
