12/Feb/2011 - 12/Feb/2011 : Magazine Gap is probably one of the most exciting UK bands to emerge in many years, in part due to its unusual make-up: take the folk-rock musings and pop sensibilities of acclaimed singer/songwriter James Keen, the R&B/hip-hop leanings of drumming sensation and record producer Brian McCook, the funk-hard rock of bassist Tim Gyton, the classically-trained jazz piano of Alex Ho and the blues-rock guitar of Jason Keen, and you have a compelling and powerful combination. The members share a singular vision and passion for exploring musical genres within an overall consistent and distinct sound, challenging but delighting audiences with songs in slightly different directions, whilst all the time balancing classic and contemporary sounds to create something fresh and yet timeless. This eclectic, transatlantic, five-piece British band utilise a range of styles including pop, rock, jazz, blues, folk, country, R&B, hip-hop, soul, funk, with occasional Latin and African rhythms.
