KICK-ARSE FUNKY POP: Get lost between the stories and the groove
The Julie Lamb Outfit is an 8 piece Aotearoa funk-pop collective - In between the stories and the groove you'll find yourself in a high energy, smile-a-minute space.
Mischief, stories, sentiment, groove. Not always in that order.
They look forward to meeting every Wednesday, sharing stories over dinner, and translating those tales into music in the practice room.
This line up creates energising and personality filled music and the arrangements work to ensure that each instrument has a chance to shine. Album reviewers and live audiences talk about this - how fabulous it is to be able to hear each instrument, how impressive that we leave space for each other, and how much fun we convey we're having... which is infectious for them too.
Well, when you enjoy being with people, respect what they do, and laugh with them a lot - it shows on a gig. That easy.
"Every song carries a unique edge that sets it apart from the standard rock fodder lurking on every corner" Martyn Pepperell, Fishhead magazine.
The latest album 'Ordinary Days' (2017) is the greatest offering yet with amazing reviews. It contains smooth and exciting funk, which along with a guest acapella number, offers the listener an appealing ride with quirky surprises.
“It’s great to hear some funky pop-rock with good old fashioned backing vocals and horn parts too. A class act made all the better by the joi-de-vivre it encapsulates and projects" - Bing Turkby NZ Music Magazine
Studio time is booked for later this year for a 2020 release.
"If you can, catch Julie Lamb live" John Shearer, Muzic.net.nz
