Jamsons Nook



The Snippet…
"Jamsons Nook is an eclectic live three piece. Playing original material blending elements of Latin, funk, folk, and electronica, they are an endless stream of tight rhythms and thoughtful ramblings. Every gig is a unique experience and a chance to spread some of that good feeling around, make sure you catch them soon!"

The Essential (but brief) Biog…
Jamsons Nook was conjured up in 2003 by acoustic singer/songwriter/guitarist Ben, and Drummer/Percussionist Kaz after playing in various bands together around Warwickshire. In 2004 they joined forces with fretless funk bass player Tim. They have played various venues in various guises, ranging from the Midlands, to even a couple of dates in New Zealand.

A few kind reviews from some very nice people…

“Jamsons Nook – A band that never fails to impress”

“Reminiscent of the New York Salsa funk movement in the 70’s”

“A blend of funk with Latin bass driven beats performed with excellent vocals that make a refreshing change”

“Jamsons Nook are neither a Funk band nor a Latin salsa band, they are fresh, inviting and dangerously addictive."

“The Jailhouse plays host to one of the finest unsigned bands I've ever witnessed! Jamson's Nook energetically light up the room with their uplifting blend of funk and samba!”

“With nods to Paul Simon (Graceland era) and Ozomatli, Jamsons Nook are a truly unique addition to the UK underground scene”

“The impact they have made is obvious. This band is the ultimate party band!”
