A little space presents "Rhythm & Jazz". Tuneful, intelligently written
songs with heart. It's jazzy, it's funky, it grooves, male vocals and instrumentals.
Building on the sounds of artists such as Steely Dan, Al Jarreau and Sting,
though uniquely original.
While completely accessible, the music is truly original, not at all
a formula copy of every other artist. Lyrically, the music offers many unique
perspectives on personal control and communications, a celebration of the
senses observing the world around us. It's the best parts of what American
music is about in the present.
Take a base of jazzy chords, funky syncopated rhythms, focused melodies
from both strong vocal and instrumental performances. Add the finesse of
jazz, the grooves of funk and the energy of an electric band working together
to come up with a mix of power and beauty that is A little space.
