A night of free-flowing jazz funk mastery

 

The Red Hot Jazz Club welcomes the fabulous funk-fusion sound of Jingu Bang to Glastonbury.

“During unsettled times, five travellers from distant lands went in search of their destiny. In the imposing mountains soaring high above the bamboo forests of Bristol, they banded together as one unstoppable force, and accepted the calling of the JINGU BANG.”

One of the funkiest jazz outfits on the thriving Bristol music scene, Jingu Bang’s free-flowing funk mastery is expressed across the lands through both their own creations and by honouring the classic tunes of Herbie Hancock & The Headhunters, Jaco Pastorius, Weather Report, Brotherly and much more.

This will be a pure funk sensation from a stunning group of musicians.

Join us in the earthly realms as they leave no stone unturned in their mission to bring you their irrepressible… funky magic!

 

“Given the line-up of mostly familiar faces it was unsurprising to find Jingu Bang was a well-oiled machine delivering the impeccable grooves their repertoire demanded. The dominance of Herbie Hancock numbers meant that keyboard player Dale Hambridge could have a lot of fun, whether percussively chopping out classic flanged wah-wah chords or letting his right hand run riot with Fender Rhodes solos. 

“Alongside him bass player Greig Robinson offered absolute reliability, with Ruth Hammond’s tenor sax stretching out the melodic ideas to usher in an emphatic solo from drummer Scott Hammond.

“Lisa Cherian’s congas provided the atmospheric undertow that had been adding an Afro-Latin flavour throughout the evening, giving the whole sound some real distinction.”

– Tony Benjamin (B24/7), The BeBop Club, Bristol – 2022
