To further illustrate my prediction about JAZZY being the new sound (see previous post), here are some great new bands doing their Jazz / Rock fusion sound. Yes, I said fusion.

First up, NYC represent!

“Private Property” Soiled Mattress & The Springs

buy me

And because I love you, here is a sneak peak at their NEW ALBUM that hasn’t even hit the shelves yet!!!

“Jackpot” by Soiled Mattress & The Springs

Check out these guys live! They play around NYC all the time.

And representing this sound to the west are Icy Demons from Chicago

“Trial By Lasers” by Icy Demons

buy me

If you ask me, it sounds like these bands may have given Frank Zappa’s 1969 jazz-rock album, Hot Rats a few spins.

“Little Umbrellas” by Frank Zappa
