WTF is a fresh jazz-funk band from London. We blend funk, reggae, drum'n'bass, house, broken beats and rock elements into a jazz framework.
WTF is...
a six-piece jazz-funk band that brings together instrumentalists from a variety of musical backgrounds, united by the urge to play fresh jazz with an edge. The result is a potent cocktail, heavy on the essence of jazz - improvisation, hard and true - and with a generous splash of funk. Depending on the mood and according to taste, other exotic ingredients, such as drum 'n' bass, reggae, and ambient and house grooves, are thrown into the mix.
The band has been in existence since 2001, and the current line-up has been in place since November 2002. After warming up by performing at events and functions, WTF broke out onto the London gig scene. They have developed a loyal and discerning following and continue to grow from strength to strength. In June 2005, the band recorded a six-track E.P., demonstrating the breadth of their musical spectrum and their emergent flair for arrangement.
WTF are
Edward Dibble (flute), Joel Reeves (alto sax), Kevin Webster (keys), Andy Thorpe (guitar and trombone), Olli Kamarainen (bass), Tomas Wegelius (drums and percussion).
