Much respect to Stuart Mattheman, Paul Denman & Andrew Hale for bringing real music back to those who truly appreciate its roots and pushing the envelope on combining old school soul with layered textures of jazz, neo-soul, vibes, grooves and melodic tones. Fellas, keep doing what you do, you got a fan for life. Can't wait for the third album!

"Hope She'll Be Happier" - vocals by Leroy Osbourne - is one of my favorite songs of all time. Sad but beautiful at the same time. It's a Still Bill Withers composition - I hear he sings it live on the Soul Power Zaire '74 documentary and tears it up.

Their first cd featured Amiel Larrieux on "You Will Rise" along with Maxwell on "Softly, Softly"Their second cd featured Aya, I highly recommend her. It also featured Ladybug from Digable MC's on "Love is the Word" Great group. I like how they are experimentin g with their sound and branching out. Their music is both relaxing and engaging.
