About this concert
極上のグルーヴを誇るインコグニートの別働隊
真夏の夜を彩るファンキー・ステージ
アシッド・ジャズ／ジャズ・ファンクの頂点に立つインコグニートの司令塔、ブルーイ率いるシトラス・サンが真夏のブルーノート東京にやってくる。70年代のファンク、ソウル・ミュージックへの敬愛と英ジャズ界のギター・ヒーロー、ジム・マレンへのリスペクトを込めて2000年に始動。2015年に初来日を果たし、極上のファンキー・サウンドで客席を魅了している。本公演にはインコグニートが誇る鉄壁のリズム隊、フランシス・ヒルトン（b）、フランチェスコ・メンドリア（ds）をはじめ、マイク・デル・フォローとの共演も話題のインドネシア出身の天才ハーモニカ奏者レガ・ダウナら豪華プレイヤーが集結。近作『エクスパンションズ＆ヴィジョンズ』でも披露された最高のグルーヴに酔いしれたい。

Citrus Sun Biography
Some of you might be surprised to know, that 'People of Tomorrow' was the second Citrus Sun album. The first album 'Another Time, Another Space' was released in Japan and then globally in 2001 that featured the Incognito rhythm section and UK virtuoso's Jim Mullen on guitar and Dominic Glover on trumpet. 'People Of Tomorrow' was a renewal of that relationship.
Citrus Sun is a project born of the producer Jean-Paul 'Bluey' Maunick's love of guitarist Jim Mullen's playing and the desire to be a part of a band with him. They have collaborated on several projects including Terry Callier and Mario Biondi.
The obvious differences between Incognito and this project is that though it features vocalists such as Valerie Etienne on some tracks, it is mostly instrumental.
Citrus Sun features the sole trumpet reminiscent of the late Donald Byrd as opposed to Incognito's full section sound. There is a cool Latin Jazz flavour on some of the cuts.
The distinctive sound of Jim Mullen's thumbing guitar brings a tonal quality that is very different to Incognito, but at times it is obvious that this is the Incognito rhythm section and for that we make no excuses, but rather celebrate the fact that this is an extended project by the same band.
Current Incognito members, and they were vital to the sound of their albums. Bluey's friends and production partners Mo Hausler and Richard Bull complete the team.
Bluey is constantly being asked by Incognito fans worldwide to make more instrumentals. This project is a way for him to feed this demand which gives him great pleasure.
The Citrus Sun is rising, come catch the sunshine!
