We were sent this video a couple weeks ago, and it immediately caught our attention with its excellent blending of bounce beats with live drumming and hand percussion in the opening. Once the lead singer launched into her verse, and the band settled into the infectious groove, we were left wanting more of the funky R&B/bounce/hip-hop hybrid. The video shows the band, Jam-All, recording the song at the Music Shed recording studio. The band, brand-new on the scene, is led by drummer Jamal Batiste, and has already picked up a few gigs here and there, including at House of Blues and Sweet Lorraine’s. Keep up with Jam-All’s development by following Jamal Batiste on Facebook or Twitter.
