Live in London - 35th Anniversary Show
It has been over three decades that Incognito brought jazz, funk and a unique sound to the world. The enduring success of Incognito is one of the great stories of UK music during the last 30 years. Incognito has, thanks to Mr. Incognito Jean-Paul Maunick (aka Bluey), developed from one of the first to the most important acid jazz projects with roots in the 1970s jazz/funk/fusion world. During their 35 year career, Incognito has had hit singles all along the way Always There and Don t You Worry Bout A Thing being two of the biggest. The band performed at all major festivals from Montreux via Monterey to North Sea Jazz and back. Bluey has over the years also worked as a producer for other artists including George Benson, Philip Bailey, Maxi Priest and Brenda Russell amongst others. Incognito s 2008 album Tales From The Beach brought the band back to their glorious acid jazz sound and the album charted all over Europe doing particularly well in Italy where the digital version topped the album charts on the same week Coldplay released Viva La Vida . It also reached the #1 spot on the Billboard Jazz charts succeeding again in the USA and also Japan. Followed by their 14th studio album Transatlantic R.P.M. , the band again succeeded in creating a groovy, uplifting and refreshing masterpiece with a Top 15 chart entry in Italy. Featuring guest vocalists such as Italian superstar Mario Biondi and soul legend Chaka Khan, the record paved the way for Incognito s groovy masterpiece Surreal . With the band s 16th studio album Amplified Soul , Incognito marked their 35th anniversary in a glorious way.
On July 12, 2014, Incognito threw a party that will surely be remembered for years to come. To celebrate the band s 35th anniversary in style, Incognito played a show at London s O2 Shepherd s Bush Empire and invited friends, family and fans to join them for a wild night out. The memorable gig brought the essentials of Incognito, the jazz, blues, funk, soul, latin and dance together for a perfect blend.
With guest performances by genre and music companion Mario Biondi, American soul diva Carleen Anderson and friends and artists from former and current times like Mo Brandis and Imaani, Incognito dug up songs from now and then for an amazing performance, delivered in style, with passion, with soul, with heart.
