The New Mastersounds is a British funk band that was founded in Leeds, England, in the late 1990s. The band's name came about because Simon Allen and Eddie Roberts had previously played together as *The Mastersounds* in 1997. With their unique blend of funk, soul, and jazz influences, The New Mastersounds have become renowned for their infectious grooves and energetic live performances.

Similar to other notable funk bands such as *Speedometer*, *"Cookin' On 3 Burners"*, and *Breakestra*, The New Mastersounds have carved out their own distinct sound within the genre. Drawing inspiration from classic funk acts like *The Poets Of Rhythm* and contemporary groups like *Orgone*, they have managed to create a modern yet timeless sound that appeals to both longtime fans of funk music and new listeners alike.

With an impressive discography spanning several albums, including collaborations with artists such as *Lettuce* and *Galactic*, The New Mastersounds continue to push the boundaries of funk music. Their dedication to creating authentic grooves combined with their tight musicianship has earned them a loyal fan base around the world. Whether you're a seasoned funk enthusiast or just discovering the genre, The New Mastersounds are sure to get you moving with their infectious rhythms.

The New Mastersounds have been delighting audiences with their infectious brand of funky soul-jazz for the two decades since they formed in Leeds in 1999. For the first five years of the band's career they were regulars at the Jazz CafÃ© in London, before they began to turn heads on the funk scene in the US, where guitarist/producer/bandleader Eddie Roberts now lives. For over a decade they have been a staple act of the late-night scene during New Orleans' annual Jazz Fest.

Recorded at Color Red Studios in Denver in December 2018, "Shake It" is a fresh Anglo-American collaboration between the band and vocalist Lamar Williams Jr (son of the late Allman Brothers bassist Lamar Williams), with high-class soulful horns from Mike Olmos &amp; Jason Mingledorff, and percussion by Jeff Franca of Thievery Corporation
