Naked Ears

Naked Ears, the band of bass player/composer Jasper de Beer and guitar player/producer Gil Lopez , are presenting their second album “Naked Ears,” six years after the well-received CD “Icebear,” with Defunkt’ singer/trombone player Joseph Bowie singing the title track. For their 2020 release there is a new line-up containing seven new compositions, two of them instrumentals. Again, Naked Ears have recorded an exciting mix of swinging contemporary grooves, funky bass,catchy horns, jazzy vibes, soulful vocals, solid guitar rhythms and exhilarating drums and percussion, all of them performed by this high-quality band that effortlessly joines forces in a broad musical spectrum. A laid-back groove is paramount, providing the musicians ample to ‘shine’. “with a touch of Sly, Miles and Fela…”
