Parisian Living

Parisian Living formed in the early 80's in Reading UK, when brothers Mike (bass) and Alan (drums) joined forces with multi- instrumentalist and vocal maestro John to begin forging a path through the forests, over the mountains and across the oceans of modern music in search of the funky Holy Grail, the Muthalode. By the time of our first demo cassettes, Timski (keyboards) and Phil (piano) had augmented the line-up and the sound really began to strike home. The same five musicians still form the creative core of the band today. Our philosophy is to take somethin' funny and make it funky. We are still the last surviving independent cast-iron all-weather ever-optimistic still expanding flood-damaged no-budget home video bona fide 100% home-made from natural ingredients oldest-established permanent floating Anglo-French-Australian funk band in the South (of England)! "You guys are the British Funkadelic" may be the nicest thang anyone's ever said about us (Adam, our favourite sound engineer in expansive mood). We're not worthy... Our fifth and latest LP "Massive In A Parallel Universe" is out now, online and on CD. Our previous albums "Beyond The Dreams Of Avarice"(1986) "Negative Entropy"(1992) "Viva" (1995) and "Another Load From The Muthalode" (2001) have had positive reviews and scored the band two great festival appearances in France, not to mention ten plays on college radio station WVOF in Fairfield, Connecticut, USA. "Another Load From The Muthalode" is also available on CD, and from your favourite download provider or streaming service.
