A recording project in New York City in 2006 led a collective of like minded souls to record what was to become ‘Under The Pavement’, The Travelling Band’s debut studio album. Released two years later, the record was very well received by the UK media, gaining BBC 6 Music ‘Album of The Day’, BBC Radio 2’s ‘Single of The Week’ and a featured song in the Ian Dury biopic ‘Sex Drugs & Rock n Roll’.

Their second album, ‘Screaming is Something’, released last May, demonstrated a giant leap forward for the band. An album which isn’t quite soul music, isn’t quite folk, isn’t quite pop, country or rock. The Travelling Band are currently in the studio working on their eagerly anticipated third record.

“The Travelling Band’s shimmering blend of cosmic-country-pop, understated psychedelia, vocal harmonies and nu-folk has made them one of the most talked about artists to emerge from the Manchester music scene – “If you consider the term Mancunian Americana to be an oxymoron try listening to The Travelling Band. Brilliant.” – Marc Riley, BBC 6 Music

So, after Because We Can and Because We Can… Again, comes Because We Still Can. With this only the second date, there’s no indication as to which of Joseph’s numbers will be featured, but since, over the course of umpteen album, he’s not released a single song that makes you reach for the skip button, whatever he brings will do just fine. This Thursday, 7.30pm.  Hare & Hounds, Kings Heath

As we enter the final month of preparations for this year’s Mostly Jazz, Funk & Soul Festival, friday night’s compere will be joining us for a Bank Holiday DJ session at the Hare & Hounds.   Music lover, record collector, DJ, and broadcaster, Gilles Peterson is perhaps most famous for his much loved genre-exploding radio shows.  His recent move from to BBC6Music has been well-received by his fanbase as he continues to join the dots between a wide variety of leftfield, soulful sounds.

This year’s festival promises to be the strongest yet with headline appearances from George Clinton’s Parliament/Funkadelic, Roots Manuva & Family Stone. We will be offering the first 50 Festival ticket holders a chance to buy 2 tickets for this event for £15.  Email john@mostlyjazz.co.uk for details.
