Bamboos Flac

This Is How You Do It is The Bamboos 11th studio album and shows that the nine piece Melbourne Funk and Soul trailblazers continue to evolve even after 23 years together as a band.

On their third album, Australian kings of Funk, The Bamboos, take the beat-laden deep party Funk of their previous LPs and push the boundaries of their sound with an injection of Northern Soul and '60s Mod Soul style. An amazing selection of guest vocalists (Kylie Auldist, MC Ty, Megan Washington and Swedish Soul sensation Paul MacInnes) add their own unique flavors to the brew.

The Melbourne nine piece funk-soul powerhouse The Bamboos return with a new single “Lit Up” taken from their forthcoming al- bum, Night Time People, the group’s eighth studio album due out June 8 through Pacific Theatre/BMG. Millions of listeners globally are already familiar with the winning combination of The Bamboo’s guitarist / leader Lance Ferguson and vocalist Kylie Auldist, thanks to “This Girl” by Kung Vs. Cookin’ On 3 Burners. One of 2016’s biggest chart hits, “This Girl” was a remix of a 2009 track co-written by Ferguson that showed that the world was craving pop music with genuine soul.

On the second 'Shapes' compilation of 2010, out 6th December, Tru Thoughts A&R Robert Luis treats your ears to a whopping 30 tracks from artists across the label's roster. The two disc collection includes more previously unreleased and exclusive cuts than ever, as well as many that have only previously been available on limited vinyl and now make an appearance on CD.

As a lifelong soul boy - poet, actor, presenter Craig Charles has been adding to his trunk of funk music since his youth, and now after almost 20 years hosting his world renowned BBC6 Music and Radio 2 shows, DJing at clubs and festivals around the globe his reputation as an ambassador for all things soulful & funky is indisputable.
