The infamous Haggis Horns hardly need any introduction, having been at the forefront of the UK funk scene since they came to our attention on the legendary album "Keb Darge Presents The New Mastersounds". They have two funk-fuelled albums under their belt, 'Hot Damn!' & 'Keep On Movin' ' (First Word Records) and they have been rocking crowds the world over for years winning fans with their distinctive northern funk sound combining ass-shaking breakbeats, afrobeat, soul and hip-hop. Having long been first call, in demand, session musicians, they have recently returned to their roots and have a new streamlined, leaner and meaner band. Now going out as a five piece based around the nucleus of Atholl Ransome on saxes/flute/ perc/vocals and Malcolm Strachan on trumpet/flugelhorn/perc/vocals, they have enlisted the help of Dan Goldman (aka JD73) on keyboards and Moog bass to add a new depth to the sound of Luke Flowers on drums and Ben Barker on guitar/vocals, complementing the power and finesse of the horns. This new, more raw sound is the perfect setting for their original hits and new material to get any dance floor jumping - a band at the top of their game!
