Gather round people, this is serious stuff. Alonzo Gardner & The Illusions present a pastiche of the best od the best elements of Sam And Dave, Ornette Coleman's harmolodic's, P- Funk and a heapin' helpin' of R&B. The singing brims with soul and the horn playig,rhythm section and guitar cover more ground than your average band! - CMJ New Music Report

Bio
The music is a mixture of the Temptations, Little Anthony and the Imperials, James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone with elements of jazz. In high school we played funk. When I went to college and learned about jazz including Coltrane, Monk, Bud Powell, I just put it all together like a New Orleans 'Gumbo'.
