This group brings forth an energetic sound with the first track, “I’m Not So Sure,” It starts off with a slow speed and dives right into a flourishing and upbeat sound that is perfect dance to.
“The Stinger,” portrays an old-time flavor a listener could envision walking into a country western bar and the band continues as a fight over a poker game. As the song goes on an innocent drum beat creeps along giving a misty rhythm to the song.
“Divine,” is a track that gives off a dim and shadowy feeling. This track could be heard in a motion picture where a devastating occurrence has taken place. The track plods along at slothful pace.
“Speed Low,” is a true complement to the song. It goes at a snail's pace with only one musical ornament being showcased. A lazy tempo and might be placed in a movie where lead actor or actress is an impasse and thinking which road to traverse next.
Jolly and much merriment describes the Roy Hargrove Quintet, “Roots” sprightly give profoundly deep ballads along with tunes that reflect darker situations that people go endure every day.
