Event Description
Purveyors of full-fat, calorie-laden, whipped up funk 'n' soul, James Brown Is Annie met in a piano bar, rehearse next to a sex shop, and take their name from an Eddie Murphy Saturday Night Live sketch.
The Scottish sextet's two albums (JBiA I and JBiA II) were produced by original Average White Band members Molly Duncan (2015) and Hamish Stuart (2018), the group gaining a BBC Radio Scotland 'Single Of The Week' award for the song, Get Up To Get Down.
Regulars on Scottish Television and BBC Radio Scotland, JBiA are the only band to have headlined two different stages at the famous Edinburgh Hogmanay Street Party. The Scottish outfit have also shared stages with some of funk and souls' top recording artists, including Average White Band, The Family Stone, Brand New Heavies, The Headhunters, Little Feat, Robert Cray Band, to name but a few.
Audiences can expect the funk, the whole funk and nothing but the funk.
