It's the long-awaited next installment in the ongoing evolution of Australia's finest Funk & Soul band. The brand-new Bamboos album '4' is out now! Here's what the tastemakers are already saying: "No doubt in my mind this is the best thing they've done! There's a big challenge facing a lot of Funk bands this year, and that is having explored most avenues of the late 60's sound where do they go from there? This album in a lot of ways shows them the way to go" - CRAIG CHARLES 'THE FUNK & SOUL SHOW' BBC6 (U.K) "Love the new Bamboos..." - HARRY SHEARER (KCRW, NPR Worldwide, The Simpsons, Spinal Tap U.S) "They are the tightest Funk act in the world...I would have stopped giving them the album of the week spot if they didn't keep pushing the bar higher than anyone on the scene." - TIM RITCHIE ABC RADIO NATIONAL (AUST) Album Of The Week 6th April 2010 "The eleven dancefloor gems easily compete with James Brown - The Godfather of Funk and turn every club into a Finnish sauna within minutes" - PLAYBOY MAGAZINE (GERMANY) "You'll be hearing a lot more of it...such a great sound" - MARK LAMARR BBC RADIO 2 (U.K) "A first class gem...A classic is born!" - BLUES & SOUL MAGAZINE (U.K) "The new Bamboos is Huge!" - LAURENT GARNIER (FRANCE) "Beautiful examples of killer modern Funk!" - ASHLEY BEEDLE (U.K) "The Bamboos greatest attribute is the way they combine the deepest, truest love for the full range of old school funk & soul styles...yet still sound themselves very much of the here & now. You can't really overstate the value of doing the first wave innovators proudly while moving so comfortably in the post millennium." - DUSTYGROOVE (U.S) Pick '4' up now from www.etchshop.co.uk, iTunes or at your favourite record store! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE BAMBOOS 'ON THE SLY'/'TURN IT UP' 12" VINYL SINGLE OUT NOW!
What do you get when you combine a truly nasty, percussive drum break with massive Hammond and guitar stabs, a loping sly horn line and Kylie Auldist’s velvet rip-saw vocals? “On The Sly” is the first single from The Bamboos’ upcoming album, “4”, and a real statement of intent: a piece of music for 2010 that somehow transcends the boundaries of what we know as the ‘Deep Funk’ scene and pushes The Bamboos up into a world all their own, “On The Sly” is The Bamboos crystallised, arrived, their own unique sound fully realised. The video has been up on You Tube since early November last year, and has clocked up over 11,000 views. Head over to the Tru Thoughts online store the Etchshop to bag your copy now: www.etchshop.co.uk
‘4’ is released on Tru Thoughts on March 29 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE BAMBOOS NEW VIDEO CLIP LIVE ON YOUTUBE NOW! 'On The Sly' is the first single from the forthcoming Bamboos album '4' out Mar 29th on Tru Thoughts Records. Check out the hot new video clip RIGHT NOW...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE BAMBOOS feat. LYRICS BORN DIGITAL SINGLE OUT NOW! The die was cast for this explosive collaboration when U.S Hip Hop artist Lyrics Born put it out on the JJJ airwaves that the only Australian act he was interested in working with was The Bamboos! Hurried phone calls and emails to promoters/management later led to a hook-up between the much-lauded MC and Bamboos band leader Lance Ferguson/Lanu. The result: A dance floor A-Bomb that sees Lyrics Born pushing his own vocal envelope over one of the hardest-hitting Bamboos grooves yet. 'Turn It Up' combines signature heavy Bamboos drums with super-tough Bass lines and an irresistible chorus hook. Available now as a digital single on iTunes or www.etchshop.co.uk 12" vinyl single b/w 'On The Sly' out FEB 8th! Check it here: www.myspace.com/thebamboos -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RAAH PROJECT REMIX OUT NOW!
