RESOLUTION 88
Resolution 88 is a hard-hitting, Fender Rhodes driven raw funk quintet led by Tom O'Grady, playing original funk music in the vein of Herbie Hancock and more recent innovators such as Kaidi Tatham (Bugz In the Attic).
With critical acclaim, flourishing sales and a fast growing fan base Resolution 88 have toured in the UK supporting the Blackbyrds (Donald Byrd's famous protégés), Medeski, Martin & Wood, Nels Cline and Snarky Puppy.

"Wow. Soulful music, played with passion and incredible skill. This harkens to the best funk-jazz of the sixties and seventies and takes it to a new level. Think Headhunters for the new millennium."
Bob Power (The Roots, Erykah Badu, D'Angelo...) New York 2013
"Resolution 88 ... this is an exciting young band from Cambridge who take their influence from the immensely important, barrier-breaking mid 70's funk jazzer Herbie Hancock & the Headhunters - they've come out of nowhere at the last minute! There's absolutely no-one around at all like these guys at the moment!"
Craig Charles (The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show)
