Naturally 7

from l. to r. : trumpet+vocals, turn tables, drum, guitar, vocals, vocals+flute/trombone, bass

Last show I saw at the Jazz Festival was Naturally 7, on Wednesday. Man these guys kick ass!!!
A cappella, beat box, R&B with a twist.. call it what you will, they are excellent!

No instruments of course, it's kinda impossible to describe it, you have to listen to it. Sadly, their albums are a bit of a let down. The energy on stage didn't transfer to the studio and the songs are too mellow :S

Anyway, CHECK THOSE LINKS!!! and if they ever come to town for a show GO SEE THEM!!!

"Say you love me" is now part of my top 5 of the most beautiful love songs ev-er! I recorded it at the show, only half the song cause I thought I'd find it on the cd... but it just doesn't sound as good (how many time do you actually say that? it sounds better live?!?)

update! I found the complete song live... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ai2FHoUGuKk


The song that made them famous worldwide, recorded in the metro de Paris, a cover of Phil Collins "in the air tonight". Ho how I wish I'd been there... a serious case of "I don't care that we're at my station, I'm not getting out of here until they finish!"
