Since the release of their initial 7" singles on the Ohio-based Colemine Records through the 2020 release of their critically acclaimed self-titled full length LP via Los Angeles' Nacional Records, JUNGLE FIRE's unique blend of deep funk, West African dance music and AfroCaribbean rhythms has been a favorite of well known DJs and taste makers worldwide, including the likes of Craig Charles and Gilles Peterson (BBC), the Paris DJs (France), Rich Medina, Garth Trinidad (KCRW), Cut Chemist, DJ Numark and NPR, to name a few.Juno Records (UK) has summed up the band's live show experience by stating: "Few bands live up to their name in the way JUNGLE FIRE do; fusing Cumbia, Afrobeat and trad funk, each JUNGLE FIRE jam blazes the floor with real power". Consisting of musicians who have played, recorded, and/or toured with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Ozomatli, De La Soul, Celia Cruz, LCD Soundsystem, U2, and Kelis, among many others, their sound is a direct reflection of the musical and cultural landscape of the city they call home; a highly explosive musical cocktail ready to ignite lovers of funky beats worldwide!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz04ukogluQ&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fgrand-performances.squarespace.com%2F https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/0afec990-6341-11f1-b16f-0f9f4695b0c4-rimg-w592-h740-dc15181b-gmir.jpg For fans of Perez Prado, Haruomi Hosono, Walter Wanderly, Martin Denny, Talking Heads, Lounge Music, and shoplifting.“L.A.’s Healing Gems make music for lost explorers, midnight surfers, and spaghetti western anti-heroes who packed one too few bullets. They’re cinematic in the most technical way possible. and they take a long history of kitschy studto soundtracks, 50s pan-Latin dance compilations, and overlooked erotica albums and remake them into a world all their own.”— L.f.
