THE GREYBOY ALLSTARS
GBA invokes their “sultry, syrupy grooves… that brew up an intense dancefest spiked with obscure jazz beat” wherever they play, says the Denver Post Reverb. They are a funk and jazz group created in the early 1990s and were a major part of the mid-90s acid jazz movement that spurred a renewed interest in late 60s/early 70s soul jazz. GBA was in Telluride last in 1996, and you won’t want to miss them this time around. [more info and music]
