Biography Funksters: Special Funkster: Stu Lissaman Vocals and Guitar Danny McGinn Horn Guy Kirkham Bass Justin Williams Drums Jonny Corcoran Guitar Tim Salter Keys Keira Veysey Vocals The Blue Room Baboons are exploding on to the scene in the South West with a blend of Rock, Funk, Blues and Soul. The band most certainly creates a unique sound and often seamlessly blends a drink or two with live shows that create a funk pit frenzy. The set contains mainly original material, but some popular covers are thrown in for good measure. To date the band has had a residency at the prestigious venue ‘Mama Stones’ in Exeter and recorded with Grammy award winning musician Jonathan Joseph (as the producer). Also, the Bristol gig scene is proving rich pickings as they have already played at Mr Wolf’s, The Golden Lion and Joe Public’s, to name but a few. The band has also recorded many songs in the past and has an impressive live show that effortlessly merges their original material with the classics. The Blue Room Baboons are ready to take their music to a wider audience and are looking to play high profile gigs to increase their already large and loyal fan base. They are already popular with music lovers and musicians alike. Their last gig was at the Golden Lion in Bristol, but one of the highlights of their career so far, was a support slot for the original line up of the classic hip-hop band The Sugarhill Gang. Their latest release, recorded at Deep Blue recording studio in Plymouth, is a 4 track EP that will be ready for release in April and the band will be hitting the road to promote it. There is to be launch party on the 8th of April at Wellington Arts Centre. It will be a great evening featuring performances from the band, DJ’s, magicians and other entertainers. Previous recordings include a three-track EP ‘All On Red’, (available on iTunes and Last.FM) recorded at Beehive Studios. The use of analogue and reel-to-reel equipment lends a warm sound that really stands out. An 11-track album ‘Year Of The Baboon’ and a five-track mini-album ‘Welcome To The Blue Room’ are both available on Last.FM for free! The Blue Room Baboons are currently working on increasing downloads on iTunes, CD sales, & getting more exposure through MySpace, Facebook and the live shows. The band has been featured on American television opening Mama Stones in Exeter. The band is looking for all opportunities to help bring their music to the masses.
