The Unknowns
Overview
The Unknowns are a five-piece band whose music combines the sound of vintage jazz, blues and soul with a contemporary pop twist to create an upbeat and unforgettable sound. Featuring three-part vocal harmony backed by keyboard, guitar, ukulele, acoustic bass and drums, they approach original songs and timeless jazz standards with the same contemporary polish. Inspired by their love of R&B, motown, Broadway ballads and swing, their live performances showcase the band’s exceptional musicianship and fun, irreverent attitude that wins over audiences.
We will be in Europe in July, 2024, so hoping to add more gigs in France, Belgium and Norway.
