This six track EP makes you want to hear more, recorded and produced by Greg Mayo himself. You can tell this is not just a band, but a group of fine musicians who have studied and love their music & want you, the listener, to enjoy it too. If you like Funk with a slither of Jazz and a whole handful of Soulful Rock (with a psychedelic edge), you will love it. Energised musicians who know their music, a classic sound with a fresh twist of youthful spiciness. Feel good, upbeat Rock is fed to you from Greg Mayo & the Groove. From the first track Get It Goin it does just that gets you going for the rest of the EP. Makes you want to dance and turn up the Funk. James Brown would be proud of these boys. Supposedly likened to the Police not my scene at all, but I like this band, so if the Police aint your thing, dont be put off. Greg has a good Jazzy/Rock voice and his lyrics weave easily around you. I especially enjoyed the track Inside Your Mind - beautiful. You get the feel Greg is enjoying singing this & his band respond to his call. This is an observational, honest song, which draws you into the lyrics. Theres an inspiring horn section in Maybe and the Funky guitar sounds in 6 days, rest well on your pallet, enticing you to taste more. Finishing with The Flow, drumming those sweet percussion sounds inside you. This is a wonderfully written EP with fun loving lines, catchy choruses and Soulful/Funky/Rock rhythms, giving you an energy release to revitalise your inner being.
