Ok folks, I'm looking for a name for a one off band project, I've got set up (well, half set up). Jam sessions etc are all well and good, but I like bands- for the identity and common ethos, as well as the 'team' aspect. This one's a three (or possibly four if we get in a bassist or just possibly a scratch DJ/sampler guy) piece grungy hammond organ trio (organ, drums, me on tenor and guitar).... Brian Auger/ Jimmy Smith in a really bad mood, Medeski/Martin/Woods, a bit of 1970s New York jazz punk, slighlty Bitches Brew... funky but quite heavy and a bit disonnant in places....
But it needs a name- 'Hammond-X' has been done before (curses- love that one), 'Graham, Dean & Lawrence' does work as well as 'Emerson, Lake and Palmer' (which wasn't a great name in the first place!), always wanted to call a band 'Redneck Radio' but that's more of one for a rock & roll outfit....
Anyone any ideas... funky, New York No Wave/ CBGBs, hammond organs, film noir, the spiky end of 1960s mod club jazz, etc....?
