Les Jeux Sont Funk throws in everything but the kitchen sink in paying homage to some of their favorite funk artists in \u201cA Tribute to the J.B.s.\u201d During a writing retreat in Trento, Italy, the newly expanded group decided to fan the flames of their budding musical chemistry and jam in the styles of The Meters, Shuggie Otis, Roy Ayers, P-Funk, and more. One of the grooves formulated on bass and guitar was augmented by tight hitting drums and touches of Latin jazz horns and it seemed to fall amongst the same lineage as The J.B.s. As the band reflected, they compared the J.B.s to figurative sherpas that helped James Brown climb to the top. Les Jeux Sont Funk penned the crafty title \u201cA Tribute to the J.B.s,\u201d as they were quite literally a funk band rehearsing in the mountains looking to elevate their collective sound to new levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
