In The Spotlight

Air Stranger – “Dangerous Game”

By merging rock with funk and soul, this Canadian four-piece band from Vancouver constructed their own fresh, modern take on their eclectic influences, which include Muse and James Brown. Band members Guy Wilkins (vocals), Sebastian Chamney (guitar), Colin Sankey (bass) and Eric Sankey (percussion) added a dedicated horn section, in order to generate that pure funkilicious edge.

Their new single draws you in straight away with a buoyant bass line and leads you to a myriad of powerful, lively horns. It’s a clever arrangement in which pop, rock, funk and soul marry effortlessly into one delectable groove. With expertly textured instrumentation and vibrant vocals, it’s an exciting and lush ear-worm which is both rambunctious and highly catchy.
