A four-piece Jazz & Blues-inspired band steeped in the sound of ’60s Soul Jazz, this group brings familiar grooves to life with a clean, earthy tone that’s all their own. Led by guitarist and vocalist Mike Quick, playing his vintage 1955 Gibson ES-175, the band features Bill Bairley on keys, WaDu on bass, and Tony Rice on drums. The result is a sound that channels the soul and swing of Ray Charles, George Benson, Jimmy Smith, and James Brown—all rolled into one night of hot, funky jams. With rhythms that anyone can latch onto and soloing that lifts the music higher, every performance is a groove-driven journey through classic soul and jazz fire.
