Most of you do not know them: Yo Yo Honey!
They released their debut album in 1992. In this band, the soul and funk of the 80s combines perfectly. A little Soull II Soul, a little Chic, a little bit SNAP! - an ingenious symbiosis! Not to mention, the soft jazz influence! The voice of Anita Jarrett is just perfect for it! I Love it!!!
Just chilling and floating...
