Well, it sounds like he's got it all planned out, plus I plan on staying plenty busy with NoRA all summer. I'm assuming you meant me anyway.adam atherton wrote:sounds like a great project....and your bass player posts on here already....Silencio wrote:Ollie, that is totally the plan: sophisticated R&B, tinged with jazz, ranging into the better 70s and 80s pop/funk. Think Steely Dan, Sade, The Brand New Heavies, "Almost Blue," punctuated with any hit song I personally think is terrific. A tight 6-piece combo fronted by a female vocal (alternating with yours truly as occasional lead singer). Low stage volume, rehearsals with charts, perfectly in tune and in time, so cool it gives you chills.
I've got a couple of people interested in this. It remains to be seen if we can pull it off this year. But if we can, we'll be gelling it up at the Jam Crib.
And some of the best players in town do post here - not necessarily referring to myself...
