Sat 1st Dec 2007
On Stage: Sorenson Soul Workout
Drummer and soul-jazz supremo Adam Sorenson fronts this band made up of great
touring musicians. Adam lives in the USA now and when he comes to Scotland to
stay
we always try and book this band. He has played with Blue Note Records legend
Melvin Sparks and this boogaloo and funk outfit have performed at the Glasgow
Jazz
Festival in 2006 and have now become one of our favourite Fish Fry bands.

Sat 8th Dec 2007
On Stage: Diwan
Samba Sene was born in Senegal but moved to Scotland seven years ago. He writes
his
own material and sings in French, English and his native Wolof. His style is
strongly influenced by the jazzy grooves of Senegal and particularly by
musicians
like Baaba Maal (whom he played with before leaving Senegal) and Salif Keita. He
has
a broad appeal, from world music fans to audiences that just want to dance to
the
beats.

Sat 15th Dec 2007
On Stage: Digital Jones + DJs Erik d'Viking & Astroboy
This act combine jazz, funk, electro, broken beat, soul and rock in a heady
cocktail, featuring 'Prince' Phil McBride (bass), John-Henry (percussion &
drums)
and the exuberant Nikki Kent (vox). Not only does Nikki have one serious set of
lungs on her, she's also, to quote Dimitri From Paris, 'a very stylish girl'
with an
effervescent personality and a no-shrinking-violet performance mentality to
boot...
Last month they ripped the place apart this is about as funky as Edinburgh gets!

Sat 22nd Dec 2007
On Stage: Voces Del Sur
The authentic heart of South America in Scotland, with spicy riffs, complex
guitar
rhythms, seductively melancholic melodies and powerful dance beats. An
Edinburgh
based four piece band led by stunning Chilean singer Valentina Montoya Martínez
and
Scottish virtuoso guitarist David Russell, with May Halyburton on double bass
and
recent addition versatile Argentine percussionist Gerardo Ballesteros.
"...combining passion, sensuality and musical intelligence Martinez is a
dazzling
performer with a world class voice..." THE SCOTSMAN

On Stage: The Joy Foundation
This 7-piece Edinburgh based smooth Latin, soul, jazz and funk band make their
Jazz
Bar debut. With live percussion, horns and a rhythm section all being brought
together by their stunning female vocalist Lady Miss Emerald we expect this act
to
go down very well. Their demos bring together influences from new artists such
as
Nicola Conte and 4 Hero with classic examples such as Marvin Gaye and Prince.

Sat 5th Jan 2007
On Stage: Hooktd Up

Sat 12th Jan 2007
On Stage: Das Contras
Following a recent support slot for Terry Callier at the Jazz Cafe this band are
on
fire.
"Like an acoustic Groove Armada, Das Contras like their brass and breezy good
times
tunes. While Groove Armada stick on some beats to modernise the sound Das
Contras
keep it plugged out and use instruments like violins, piano and bongos" Daily

Sat 19th Jan 2007
On Stage: Mosa Funk Club
They are clearly influenced by acts such as Miss Dynamite and Goldie Lookin
Chain
(both of who they happen to have shared stages with). Combining urban chic,
good

jumping.
