One of the most successful acid jazz/UK funk groups of all time, The Brand New Heavies have had a lineup of talented lead vocalists throughout their career. From Linda Muriel to Sulene Fleming, these vocalists have brought their unique style and energy to the group's records. N'Dea Davenport was particularly influential in the 90s, leading the band to great success. After her departure, Dawn Joseph took over as lead vocalist until late 2015 when both she and co-lead vocalist Jan Kincaid left the group. However, N'Dea re-joined for their 2016 tour.
The Brand New Heavies' discography is filled with memorable hits such as "Never Stop", "Dream Come True", "Dream On Dreamer", "Midnight At The Oasis", "Sometimes", "You Are The Universe", "You've Got A Friend", "Saturday Nite" and "I Don't Know Why (I Love You)". These songs showcase the band's infectious blend of acid jazz and UK funk that has captivated audiences worldwide.
With a rich history and an impressive catalog of music, The Brand New Heavies continue to be a force in the music industry. Their captivating performances and timeless sound make them a must-listen for any fan of acid jazz or UK funk.
