Keyboardist Jim Couchenour released his debut “LIVING COLOUR” October 5, 2004 to rave reviews. The band’s third CD entitled “ENDURANCE” has now been released to rave reviews.
The band’s unique blend of fusion, intentionally marketed toward the 25-64 age group has been described as ‘George Duke meets Steely Dan on the way to Quincy Jones house while listening to David Benoit!’ The fellas dubbed their music “Originalalternativefunkjazzfusion!”
“PERSEVERANCE” was awarded the 2003 Nu Soul ‘Album of The Year’ from
