The Bamboos, an Australian funk six piece, are big funk collectors and inspired
by artists such as The Meters, Mickey & the Soul Generation, Jimmy Smith and
Reuben Wilson, but have a contemporary deep funk sound too. "Rawville" still
embraces the deep raw organ based funk aesthetic of their album "Step It Up",
but it also embraces different flavours. "Rawville" is a lot more song-based
than "Step It Up". The album is half vocal based tunes and half instrumental.
Vocals include those from label mate Alice Russell as well as vocalists Kylie
Auldist, Tyra Hammond (Opens Souls), Fallon Williams and Ohmega Watts
(Ubiquity). The Bamboos took a larger horn section into the studio for this
album, so the horns are thicker and more experimental in terms if harmonies. You
will hear influences from the JB's, Alice Clark, and early Kool & The Gang
coming through on the horn arrangements.
