trees lounge project
Stage 3 yet again in total contrast is “Trees Lounge Project” are a Nu-Jazz / Modern Soul Acoustic trio in rude health picking up the mantle left by such artists as Sting, Incognito, Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder and Erykah Badu plus adding their own very distinctive style.
Creating a very organic and crafted sound – they play their own genre-defying songs but also add unique treatments to some classy covers that you just will not believe! Switching between pure, fragile Soul, powering into roaring Funk, dropping down to some street Hip Hop and visiting stately modern Jazz – all this from just three guys!
Greg’s guitar playing has been compared to a subway train meeting a flamenco guitarist! and Carl has been described as a “fantastic drummer” by no less than Derrick McKenzie of Jamiroquai! Add the final ingredient; a topping of chic vocals from Steve - crushingly earnest to raunchy and robust in the blink of a bar.
The band radiate a musical confidence that will do something naughty to you and take you on a journey to the most vulnerable of musical moments before exploding like a depth charge and tearing the roof off! All with the tightest of grooves! From the first chord, you will be left in no doubt that these three are in command!
“One of the most interesting and unique acts around. With an outstanding sound and vibe” Peter Jay
