THE BRIT FUNK ASSOCIATION
featuring BEGGAR & CO, HI-TENSION, CENTRAL LINE
All-Star Brit Funk Supergroup featruring members of Beggar & Co, Hi-Tension, Central Line and ex-members of Light of the World & Incognito.
The Brit-Funk genre started in the late 1970\'s and was a catch-all phrase coined by Record Mirror Magazine\'s James Hamilton to describe the distinctive mix of jazz-fusion-funk-disco music being made by UK bands such as Level 42, Light of the World, Freeez, Shakatak, Central Line, Hi-Tension, Morrissey / Mullen, Second Image, Direct Drive, Linx and Incognito.
The Brit-Funk Association is a new project featuring musicians from Beggar & Co, Central Line, Hi-Tension and ex-members of Light of the World and Incognito to perform from each of the band\'s back catalogue such as \"Time\", \"Somebody (Help Me Out)\", \"Walking Into Sunshine\", \"Hi-Tension\", \"British Hustle\", \"There\'s a Reason\", \"I\'m So Happy\", \"London Town\", \"Nature Boy\", \"Everyday\" and choice selections of band\'s that influenced them by acts such as Mass Production, Kool & The Gang, Roy Ayers Ubiquity etc
