Tim Rogers & The Bamboos

Maybe genre is kinda redundant anyway.

Overview

While 'Thrift Shop' swaggers to the clumsy mash of spiky melodic contours and full Ab minor chords, triple j's other Hottest 100 collaborative effort rambles confidently through soulful grooves and grazing vocals. The grooves come at the hands of 9-piece funk/soul/psych/mod Melbourne outfit The Bamboos and the vocals from You Am I frontman Tim Rogers, and the result is one big track that's even bigger live.

This month the temporarily ten-piece lineup will take 'I Got Burned' across the country along with some unheard originals and a whole heap of new covers. With Rogers voice and Lance Ferguson's guitar punctuated by the spectacular larynxes of resident Bamboos Kylie Auldist and Ella Thompson plus a handful of brass things and a Hammond organ, the Soul and Rock 'n Roll show should give you plenty of material with which to argue that maybe genre is kinda redundant anyway.
