A MIND FOR VIOLETS.... Not content with either the often
self indulgent face of modern jazz or mundane, uninspiring indie/rock band clones,
but a lover of that 50's swing sound, grungy guitar riffs, Trip-Hop/Hip-Hop beats, latin flavours,
spontaneous musicality and 'proper songs', Steve Spall began creating as
THE VIOLET JIVE.
Along side their feverishly infectious original material, the
band's live set often includes some unexpected covers and arrangements of classic tunes, including a lush take on Bjork's 'Venus as a Boy',
and a rump shaking, smile inducing version of The Jungle Book theme 'King of The Swingers'. Click Here for more on our covers vibe including audio.
The 2009 limited edition e.p 'Vicious Limbo' is now sold out
and a new album planned for Summer 2010. The 2008 release 'Far Flung' is available here and at all live shows!
