Never before has afro-soul been so exciting and dynamic as on this collection of fiery instrumentals. From the aching peels of the trumpets to the walloping trounce of the electric bass, these 11 talented young men employ the full spectrum of sound to bring you face to face with the essence of Staten Island soul. You will feel and enjoy this music thoroughly from the soles of your feet to the inner sanctum of your mind.

'The Budos Band' is the debut album from this brilliant collective, who grew from sneaking in the back door of Staten Island soul clubs to catch searing performances from the likes of Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings and the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra.

The musicians claim the secret to their enormous sound is a selfless approach to rhythm: each man finding his own place and purpose in the greater landscape of the measure. However, any observant listener can hear that it is something far more simple and rare that elevates their sound into that far greater realm of pure feeling: The Budos Band have Soul, on the inside. And it's strong.
