The Bamboos: By Special Arrangement [BMG]

With “By Special Arrangement”, The Bamboos dive into the vault to deliver an alternate take on their classic soul compositions. Guitarist, songwriter and producer Lance Ferguson knew he wanted to do something different so he enlisted Ross Irwin for string arrangements and the results are reminiscent of early Stax Blues and soul recordings. Of course the lead vocals of Kylie Audist sound great in any style. Her soaring vocals capture you instantly with the opener “Keep Me In Mind”. She plucks the heart strings on ballads “I Don’t Wanna Stop” and “Stop” as well. “I Got Burned” is another slow soul burner that features Tim Rogers on lead vocals. Ferguson’s echoing guitar compliments the swaying strings. Ferguson and company aren’t resting on their laurels. They’re pushing the boundaries while solidifying their status as one of the première funk and soul acts on the scene today.
