The Freelance Bishops are a five piece jazz-funk outfit whose sound will get into your soul and make you get down. an infectious funk flavor is their foundation for improvisation and jazz sensibility. the bishops' straight-forward, yet sophisticated approach to funk is reminiscent of both the soul-jazz combos of the 60's and the harder funk of the 70's, but they inject a modern vibe which sets them apart from all others. the strong musical connections that exist between the members of this group allow them to play together in a dynamic relationship where the total is truly greater than the sum of its parts. the bishops deliver a unique sonic experience that is based on super-tight grooves yet moves unrestrained so that it can really go places. it's music for your mind and booty. The Bishops' repertoire demonstrates the wide range of styles which they explore while unmistakably creating the coherent bishops sound. from disco beats to boogaloo, and from sinister motifs to up-beat soulfullness, the freelance bishops are influenced by artists such as james brown, herbie hancock, rahsaan roland kirk, jimmy mcgriff, the meters, john scofield, the crusaders, roy ayers and the greyboy allstars. these are all ingredients to the five musical personalities that create the freelance bishops sound.... a sound that is strongly steeped in the groove but embraces improvisation in the true tradition of jazz.
