Australia seems to be the hottest frontier on the contemporary funk & soul scene at the moment with bands like The Bamboos, Cookin' on 3 Burners, Deep Street Soul and Kylie Auldist stirring up a storm in the southern hemisphere and beyond alongside DJs like Russ Dewbury. The most likely candidates to
become the brightest stars of this fast growing scene are new Sydney-based combo DOJO CUTS featuring the young and powerful Roxie Ray on vocals...a new soulful little queen has been born! Their first single "The 123s", from their debut album "DOJO CUTS feat Roxie Ray", will be released on RK in April with a cover of Marie "Queenie" Lyons sister funk classic "See and Don't See" on the flip side. If you dig Sharon Jones and Nicole Willis & the Soul Investigators you'd better watch out for Dojo Cuts. Gabriel Roth and Neal Sugarman have already declared themselves fans of the band so they can't be wrong!
"Wonderful earthy vocals and crisp playing. This is a very promising debut
for these Aussie funksters. Definitely going to be played on the show". The
Craig Charles Funk And Soul Show (BBC 6Music).
"Great effort and will get DJ Club and radio play from me!" Nik Weston
(Mukatsuku Records).
"A solid enough funk/soul cut. Lovely smoky vocals, and a nice soulful
bridge" Pete Isaach (Jelly Jazz)
"Good stuff!" Dom Servini (Shook Magazine / Straight No Chaser).
"Superb stuff, sounds the business and what a fantastic voice! Spot on-in
the box it goes" Lack of Afro (Freestyle Rec)
"Nice groove on this 7. Loving the guitar chops!" TM Juke (Tru Thoughts)
