Brother Strut set for comeback gig at The Apex

Critically acclaimed funk and soul band, Brother Strut (pictured above) make a much-anticipated return to The Apex, later this week.

Composed of some of the finest and funkiest musicians around, including two members of Jamiroquai, Brother Strut are inspired by funk, blues and American soul music of the 1960’s and ‘70’s.

They have honed their talents on some of the world’s most prestigious stages alongside an array of musical icons – from Van Morrison, Stevie Wonder, Elton John and Madonna to Sting, George Michael, Amy Winehouse and Tina Turner.

Guitarist Rob Harris joined Jamiroquai in 1999, playing and co-writing their albums, “Funk Odyssey”, “Dynamite”, “Rock Dust Light Star” and “Automaton”.

Bassist Paul Turner joined Jamiroquai in 2005 and has also played or recorded with Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, Bryan Ferry, Tom Jones and George Michael. Rob and Paul continue to co-write, record and perform live with Jamiroquai to this day.

Brother Strut’s first album entered the UK iTunes chart at number 2 and Craig Charles playlisted it on his BBC6 Music Funk and Soul Show. This year’s tour marks the release of their fifth studio album.

 Peerless showmen as well as musicians, Brother Strut pride themselves on their ability to deliver barnstorming live shows. 

With their authentic funk-flavoured repertoire, irresistible groove and infectious charisma, they never fail to fill the dance floor.

 Brother Strut are at The Apex, in Bury St Edmunds, on Thursday, October 8, at 8pm.
