check it out:
SoundClick artist: Smokey and the Bandits - page with MP3 music downloads

Band name: Smokey And The Bandits

here is the album which took alot of pain and sweat to make. i hope we did the songs justice. all local Singaporean players:
Kelvin Ng - vocals, harmonica and guitar
Thomas Wong - guitar
Louis Lam - bass
Gopalakrishnan - drums

Kelvin "smokey" Ng is killer on harp as usual, and really should be known beyond Singapore.
The original guitar player has quit playing and Smokey asked me to take over.

Comments are welcome :)
 
Wow i thought it was good!

Didn't have much time, only listened to "scratch it".
Sounds great, a bit funky in the beggining.

Nice!
 
I love the blues and i love smokey and the bandits ! one of the best local stuff on record that i have heard so far... where did you record this album ?
 
thanks for the compliments guys. appreciate them :)
i'll pass them on to my other members and let them know.
shyam - it was recorded in mix studios. i thk they have closed down for now.
they wanted to layer it track by track, but we wanted to record as a band playing and they didnt have enough mics.
i guess they are used to a more rock pop band kinda set up. ><

I actually heard of you guys through Victor Chen's facebook.

Awesome stuff, awesome band name (DEFINITELY sounded like a blues band when you hear it) and keep playing the blues guys. :cool:
 
Thanks everyone for the compliments. Really spur us to come up with more stuff. What's your favourite track? Trying to gauge which one's got more appeal.
