Yes-they're-great-BUMP.

Supported them at Camden's Jazz Cafe in December. They were unreal! The percussionist is a total hero too, she's got some serious rhythm.

My kids bought me their double CD last father's day. Great band, I remember first hearing Brother Sister way back in the 90s & instantly being hooked on their sound

I saw them at the Jazz Cafe early last year - they were really so soulful and funky - and Andrew Levy sounded great - in fact the whole band was fabulous.

Good call! It's a pity it didn't work out with Nicole Russo on vocals though.

Met them after the show at Jazz Cafe last year and they were all top people but Andrew is a top, top man and so cool!
