Featuring members of: The New Mastersounds / Soulive / Jimmy Herring / Orgone / Pimps of Joytime
Matador! Soul Sounds was born from the vision of standout modern jazz and funk guitarist Eddie Roberts (The New Mastersounds) and renowned funk and soul drummer Alan Evans (Soulive). The band made their official world debut at the 2017 Brooklyn Comes Alive. Roberts and Evans creates a sound where funk meets rock meets soul while channeling the vibe of The Meters with a much more bluesy (and funky) ability to jam. The heart of the Matador belongs to vocal goddesses Adryon de León (Orgone) and Kimberly Dawson (Pimps of Joytime). Straight up authentic funk from a very promising new troupe.
What they do best: infectious funk music that makes you want to dance. Sounds like: funk meets rock meets soul
