Guts is a Jazz / soul / funk / rap producer out of France who I caught at Eurosonic at a great live show in 2016
‘Want It Back’ was the jam that stood out then.
With a full-band in full effect featuring Wolfgang Volburn of The Ephemerals, Mary May, Beat Assaillant, Florian Pellissier, Greg F and Nico Rajao, Guts took to the studio with his players to record some new music and the result is a new EP Stop The Violence.
‘Pick Me Up’ is the lead-track from the EP, a summer beat cut with pop vibes and soulful brass flourishes courtesy of Cotonete, of Heavenly Sweetness.
The full EP is out 23rd June.
