THE DANGLING SUCCESSDown on HoustonIndependent
From Bryant Park to the Boardwalk at Coney Island to crowded midnight cafes, South of Houston (SoHo) is the artist Mecca in New York City that is the inspiration for the newest release from the cool jazz, neo soul band, The Dangling Success. They have managed to capture the smooth, eclectic and funky essence of NYC on this, their 3rd album. The veteran hipsters have played with such diverse talents as Don McLean, The Isley’s, The Shirelles and Bernard Purdie, giving them a unique background for their own musical tastes, and tasty it is. 14 new tracks defining a perfect blend of Soul, R&B and Smooth Jazz played with energy, skill and everlasting love. The Band’s live shows are renowned for their fun and energy something they have cleverly parlayed into their recorded work. “Coney Island,” the brand new, rollercoaster single is chart bound at full speed. DOWN ON HOUSTON… skillful, sexy and loaded with playfulness. ~STEWART COXHEAD
