The Mitchell & Dewbury Band - Beyond The Rains (2007)

Beyond The Rains was made in the finest tradition of the long lost art of album making. With their affinity for the past, a lust for the future and plenty of natural soul, Mitchell & Dewbury have created a modern classic. The album is an essential blend of soul, jazz, funk and Latin music united by a positive spirit.

Mitchell & Dewbury brought together an international line up for the album: Terry Callier, Navasha Daya and James Collins of Baltimore soul-jazz outfit Fertile Ground, cult Philadelphian-born jazz flutist Lawrence Jones, vocalists Billie Godfrey and Lizzie Rendall, bass player Jeff 'The Funk' Walker, pianist Mark Edwards, Nigerian saxophonist Bukky Leo (one-time student of Fela Kuti), Brazil's Drumagick and Germany's Hypnosis and Marc Frank.
