Soundbone plays Led Zep
Fronted by Trombonist/Producer Chris Greive, this extraordinary trio approaches the Led Zep cannon as devoted fans, paying homage to the massive riffs and weight of the originals by bringing a “Living Loving…” prog-jazz approach to every song. Graeme Stephen (elec gtr + efx) brings his shredding game to the tribute, with Davide Rinaldi (drums) bossing the Bonham rhythmic shapes with mighty kick drum punches. Add to this, Greive innovating in the bass role by employing an octave pedal (electric trombone)...Soundbone plays Led Zeppelin and everybody wins.
“Welcome to...the Led Zeppelin songbook, or should that be canon? Because a good number of the big guns are here: an emphatically riffing Communication Breakdown, a superbly stylish Kashmir, a rattlin’ Moby Dick and an Immigration Song that threatens the Jazz Bar’s foundations.” (Rob Adams **** Aug 2011)
