Hopefully, someday, Ill be able to get track one out of my head. This Ann Arbor based Afrobeat/Fusion octet is ready to hit the road now that their fans have basically forced them into the national eye with an onslaught of persuasive emails to jazz labels. They are finally ready to hit the road with Detroit favorite His Name is Alive, and lets hope they speak well of us back in Michigan because everyone’s going to be listening to their raw propulsive rhythms and infectious melodies. -Pete
