Following the worldwide success of Blackbird in 2013, the New Zealand based seven-piece are back with Bays, a nine-track album recorded at the band's Bays Studio in Kilbirnie, Wellington, a former 1950s HMV vinyl pressing plant.
Opening with the slow burn funk of Wairunga Blues the album journeys through a hybrid of reggae, jazz with techno rhythms underpinning Freddy's signature horns and Joe Dukie's soulful and introspective vocal, arriving finally on the crooked blues jam of Novak.
"It's been a more creative process writing this album in the studio rather than recording songs which have been well road-tested," says Dukie.
