Down To The Bone - Umph! [Official Audio]

UK soul-jazz-groove pioneers Down To The Bone are back with UMPH! - the new single taken from their upcoming studio album This Way Forward. Listen here 👉 https://cherryred.co/Umph ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ “I would constantly find myself saying, ‘that part was great but could it be played with a bit more umph?’” Stuart Wade Since the mid-Nineties producer-writer Stuart Wade and his band have been injecting fresh and funky grooves into the UK and US groove jazz scene. Their past triumphs have included a No 2 Billboard Jazz Album with From Manhattan To Staten and a Grammy nomination for their track Brooklyn Heights. The new single is co-written by Stuart with keyboard player Neil Angilley. The recording process also introduced several new collaborators who were already familiar faces within the UK live lineup but had not previously worked on the recording side. These include bassist Jo Phillpotts, alongside Gianni Chiarello, James Arben, and Piers Greene. Returning guest vocalists Hil St Soul and Guida de Palma also reprise their roles, continuing long-standing creative relationships. Keyboard duties were expanded with a first-time collaboration with Anders Olinder, with plans to work together again in the future. #jazz #ukjazz #groove #newmusic
