About NICK PRIDE & THE PIMPTONES

Nick Pride and the Pimptones are a funk / jazz / soul band based in Newcastle upon Tyne. The Pimptones were formed in 2007 as a project for guitarist, composer and arranger Nick Pride. Their record label Record Kicks describes them as "a deep funk / jazz-dance outfit playing original material in the style of The Meters, JTQ and Charlie Hunter. The group is equally at home in a noisy nightclub or intimate jazz setting, and is most likely to bring the roof of either down with their heavy dancefloor grooves, big breaks and sophisticated jazz numbers." The current line-up for Nick Pride and the Pimptones is as follows: Nick Pride - guitar, vocals, song-writer Oscar Cassidy - drums Ian 'dodge' Paterson - electric bass Keith Nicholson - trumpet Tom Quilliam - saxophone And ongoing collaborations with: Chris Hibbard - trombone Dave Wilde - saxophone, flute Alex Leathard - trombone Graham Hardy - trumpet, flugel horn John Wheeler - saxophone James Peacock - keyboard Paul Edis - piano Paul Loraine - keyboard Laurie Shepherd - guest vocals Zoe Gilby - guest vocals Jess Roberts - guest vocals Susan Hamilton - guest vocals Adam Sinclair - drums Source: Wikipedia
