The Coalminers
“The sound they have put down is perfect”
Craig Charles, BBC Radio 2
With their dedication to what they like to refer to as “Swamp Soul” this brilliant 5 piece band, with their unique mixture of New Orleans Groove and Funk, bring the rhythm and soul of the deep south (that's Louisiana, not Brighton...) alive. Featuring Sumudu (Van Morrison, Jason Rebello)-vocals, Pat Levett (Jon Cleary)-drums, Arthur Lea (Bootleg Brass)-piano/vocals, Rob Updegraff (Jamie Cullum)-guitar & Spencer Brown (Carl Barat)-bass. If recent gigs are anything to go by this highly impressive line-up are guaranteed to raise the roof!
"From time to time I stumble on a band that totally blows me away...The sound they have put down is perfect" Craig Charles - BBC Radio 2; "Riotous uplifting funk bursting at the seams, plus raw powerful vocals. Get down to the Coalminers immediately!" JazzFM
