Read MoreINCOGNITO founder Bluey presents his alter ego – eight-piece band CITRUS SUN, featuring guitar legend Jim Mullen and key members of the Incognito line-up.
Citrus Sun is a project born of Bluey’s love for the guitar playing of Jim Mullen, who in a 40-year career has played with the likes of Brian Auger, Average White Band, Jimmy Witherspoon and his own pioneering jazz-funk band Morrissey-Mullen. Incognito regulars Matt Cooper (keyboards), bassist Francis Hylton and drummer Fran-cesco Mendolia also feature. The obvious difference from Incognito is that Citrus Sun is largely instrumental, with some stunning Latin Jazz tunes, and Cooking With Walter, inspired by the TV series Breaking Bad.
Says Bluey: “In terms of sound it is more sparse as it features the sole trumpet reminis-cent of Donald Byrd. The distinctive sound of Jim Mullen’s thumbing guitar brings a tonal quality that is very different to Incognito, but at times it is obvious that this is the Incog-nito rhythm section and for that we make no excuses, instead celebrating the fact that this is a new project by the same band with me at the helm.”
Valerie Etienne (of Galliano and Jamiroquai) handles vocals on What Color Is Love, What’s Going On and the title track.
