It's looking like the rhythm & blues band I've been putting together for what seems like forever is finally turning into a real group. All told, there are 10 people involved (up to now - another horn or bone would be cool ), so you can imagine what it's like trying organise 10 working musos. But a band it looks like it's finally become, and I'm a happy honking horn player.
Fingers crossed I'll be telling you all about our first Memphis Rhythm & Blues Revue shows by spring. I'll be honest, it's only about 90% Memphis R&B and soul as we're throwing in a couple of surprises that fit into the style, one of which I don't think I've ever heard of or seen a band like us doing - at least not in the UK. I'm so excited that I have to tell someone and you lot are the only people who'll know what I'm talking about. We're doing What Is Hip, and no, we haven't simplified it in any way.
Now this is my sort of Christmas present.
