Jay Funk Dawg Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 THE JIMMY SWIFT BAND and special guests RIFF RAFT Friday, May 21, 2004 El Mocambo, College/Spadina Toronto, ON "...with quick pulsing bass and feel good swipes of guitar strums. Their heavy jam sounds combine what is best about jam music in general - overriding the overdone folky Dead-style jams by taking funk and slight traditional rural choruses along with late '70s disco keyboards, then futuristically adding a unique techno-dance approach... There is much promise to this increasingly popular band - their music acts like a vehicle - driving upwards and gliding in high gear and on cue at any given moment, they turn on the thrusters and explode into uncharted musical territory." -Exclaim Magazine JSB WEBSITE Riff Raft has been a staple of Kingston live music for over four years. Combining elements of funk, R & B, jazz and rock, Riff Raft have consistently filled the area's top clubs with dancers and music lovers.
