Merry Xmas From Chin Chin

A very chin chin christmas


I came across Brooklyn band 'Chin Chin' a few months ago on the net, and went to see them play live at the Studio at Webster Hall. Their live show is full of energy, and unlike many bands they sound just as good on stage as they do on their recordings.
I met their trombone player after the show waiting for a subway on the L line, and he came around later that week and did some recording over a song I'm working on. I'm really happy with how it came out, and his playing fit perfectly to the track.
I would describe their sound as similar to the Dap-Kings, but with more of a late 70's modern soul/boogie feel.

They're offering a free download of some of their new songs as a 'christmas gift', and you can download them here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/joi7ki

Here's a preview of one of their new ones:
