Golden Horseshoe-based blues/funk/r'n'b/soul group Groove Corporation
proudly releases their first video to support the song "Blind Man with a
Cigarette" from their debut CD Record Prophets.
The song is danceable funky blues in style, with lyrics that constitute a
warning from a caring friend about living a reckless life with no regard to
who gets hurt, like a "blind man with a cigarette", or a "mad bull in a
china shop".
Beautifully filmed in natural light by Kevin Staye (Left of Normal
Productions), in the very same space the album was recorded (bassist Steve
Hilbert's historic stone home in downtown Hamilton), the video captures the
joy this band feels when they perform together.
Groovecorp has kept busy over the winter months and economic downturn by
writing material for their next CD, and filming the video for "Blind Man
with a Cigarette". They also garnered two Hamilton Music Award nominations,
one for Blues Recording of the Year, and Lily Sazz for Keyboard Player of
the Year.
The CD Record Prophets is available through CD Baby, iTunes, and other
online sources. Watch for Groove Corporation at the Beaches Jazz Festival
(Toronto), the Corktown (Hamilton), Brando's (Brantford), and lots more to
come.
