I love the good groove of nice track with a funk flair. When done properly, a slow-to-mid-tempo funk track has an irresistable ability to make your head move up and down, and to make you seem cooler than you really are. ‘Unglued’ from the Ken Derouchie Band is just one of those tracks. And packed with soulful vocals, a super-tight horn section and a solid chorus, what more could you possibly want? Oh, what’s that? A bassline that gives that groove some depth? Well, luckily Ken and his boys have got you covered there too. And they do it all with a dash of jazz to bring out a sound that’s in a class all it’s own.

KDB comes out of Portland and this band is full of top-notch talent. Several Grammy nominees and winners make up the band. And you can tell just by listening to this track that these guys really know how to play. Not just in a technical way, but in a melodic way of knowing when to play and when to just lay back and let it ride.

Soul and funk are two genres that have been lacking over the past few years. Luckily we’ve got aritsts like the Ken Derouchie Band that are showing how it’s supposed to be done.
