Description
Bassist, vocalist, composer-arranger and producer Paul Jackson is one of the world's most important and influential electric bassists and he was a founding member of Herbie Hancock's ground-breaking band, The Headhunters. 'Groove or Die' is a soul-funk outing that features multi-instrumentalist Xantone Blacq and first-call drummer Tony Match.
Known as a "musician's musician", Jackson's creative output has shaped a new direction in contemporary music. He is one of the world's leading electric bassists and generations of bass players around the globe have been inspired by his signature infectious grooves.
After years of touring the globe with Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, George Benson, Chick Corea, and countless other visionaries, Jackson assembled a new trio featuring multi-instrumentalist Xantone Blacq and drummer Tony Match. The Paul Jackson Trio toured to sold-out club and festival audiences in Asia and Europe during which they developed a new programme of Paul's original music. The result is 'Groove or Die', the trio's debut release.
Personnel: Paul Jackson (electric bass, vocals), Xantoné Blacq (keyboards, talkbox, percussion, vocals, background vocals), Tony Match (drums, percussion)
