Ever since 1997, when they burst onto the scene with the seminal ‘Manhattan To Staten’, Down To The Bone has been all about the groove. The brainchild of non musician Stuart Wade, Down To The Bone came out of the acid jazz movement that was prevalent in the UK during the early 90’s. In the intervening years, and with sax man Shilts at its centre, the band delivered a series of high-octane albums. Indeed, the forte Wade has for using his production skills to bring alive his musical idea’s through a frequently changing group of ultra-talented performers is once more being brought into focus by the three CD box set titled ‘The Classic Album Series’ that was released in March 22 on the Trippin N Rhythm label.
The first single to be offered to radio is the mega funky ‘Concrete Jungle’ that originally appeared on the band’s 1999 project ‘The Urban Grooves’.
