Cookin´ On 3 Burners are Australia´s foremost organ trio joining the dots between funk, soul, boogaloo & jazz. Long time partners Lance Ferguson (guitar), Ivan Khatchoyan (drums) and Jake Mason (organ) have taken their home brew of soulful Hammond get down everywhere from jazz festivals to after hours bars and clubs. Their top notch reputation led to them supporting Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings in Sydney, jamming live with Breakestra and becoming THE in demand band south of the equator. With a musical CV that includes names like Joe Bataan, Alice Russell, Mark de Clive-Lowe and The Quantic Soul Orchestra, as well as the world beating outfit The Bamboos, it´s not surprising this latest CO3B album has generated huge interest even prior to its´ release.

Their first Freestyle album ´Baked, Broiled or Fried´ featured the group in a hardcore funk groove but on ´Soul Messin´ sees the sound, feel and influences widened further with some quite magical results. Versatile singer Kylie Auldist (Tru Thoughts Recordings) opens proceedings on the deep funk groove of ´Push It Up´ but it is the Freestyle 45 ´This Girl´ (FSR7057) that provides the mellow, beautiful and incredibly catchy vocal highlight of the entire collection, shimmering horns ride over this laid back, future deep soul classic.

We don´t yet know what Gary Numan will make of CO3B´s version of his 80´s synth pop hit ´Cars´ but Jake Masons organ playing (including simultaneously supplying the super funky bass lines via his Hammond foot pedals and left hand) takes this track in a direction no one was expecting!

Drummer and top notch singer Fallon Williams provides his gritty, searing voice on ´Hole In My Pocket´ and ´Seen Through Your Disguise´ sounding very much like US soul legend Robert Moore and the band display their versatility whilst doffing their caps in the direction of The Meters on the numbers ´Dog Wash´ and ´Piranha´

The down tempo, moody album closer ´The Proving Grounds´ once again shows the groups expanding musical textures and rounds off ´Soul Messin´ the bands most varied and accomplished recording so far.

Cookin´ On 3 Burners will be embarking on a promotional European tour in September 2009 featuring Kylie Auldist, these will be shows not to be missed so don´t say we didn´t warn you!
