Colonel Spanky's Love Ensemble

If you think the best thing to come out of Cambridge is 125 Nobel Prize winners, you've clearly never seen Colonel Spanky's Love Ensemble. Formed in 2009, the brainchild of the city's ten finest funk-mongers came to life within the hallowed halls of Clare College, Cambridge, when a group of undergrads spotted their mutual appreciation for bombastic Riot Jazz and the infectious rhythms of New Orleans Brass bands. Having spent their first years making a name for themselves at gigs in the private student bars and lavish society balls, they have come to form an integral part of the music scene that bridges the town/gown divide in the country's academic capital.

With memorably high energy cover performances that span genres as diverse as pop, rap, jazz, funk and ska, the Love Ensemble have appeared on stages alongside the likes of Tinie Tempah, Basshunter, Laura Mvula and Gentleman's Dub Club.

Specialising in knees-up dancing, sing-alongs, raucous rapping and sexy saxophone solos, the Love Ensemble will twist anything from 80s pop to smooth soul into the unique Colonel Spanky's sound.
