| PROFILE |
|
|
| Rooted heavily in the soul-jazz/raw funk sound of the late 60’s and early 70’s, FLYJACK is charged by a four-piece horn section, a crack rhythm section, and twin lead vocals. Hailing from Austin, Texas, the group has created international waves since forming only a year ago. Their deep-funk single "Black Water Gold" has been featured on the tastemaking Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show on the BBC, and is gaining traction in the U.S. Recently, FLYJACK has shared the stage with DJ Numark (of Jurassic 5) and Brownout; instituted a weekly residency dubbed Super Soul Mondays at Antone's - Austin's "Home of the Blues," and is at work on their first full-length album, due for release in early 2010. |
