Blue Knights

Bill-Joseph Flynn, Mr. PT, Jay Heye and Curtis McLaw at the beginning of the year 1995.

The music of Blue Knights thrives on rhytmus and a very jazz influenced groove-piano. Amazing production, rich sounds and some very tight arranging and playing will capture all fun loving music gourmets. Music to dance to, songs to relax with, melodies like a sunset and rhytmus that are perfect for lovers and dancers. A combination of colour and sensual music. Sexy jazz, light house grooves, some fine piano playing and high class audiophile production turn this music into a first rate music.

Curtis McLaw who reached with his band Dancing Fantasy the Billboard Top 20 in USA, shines here as a producer on another project. While the distinct Dancing Fantasy sounds captures an ever growing audience worldwide, Curtis and his production ideas are too big for just one project. The debut album „Blue Nights” was an instant hit especially with US radio, climbing the US-charts rapidly. The up-tempo happy-jazz/fusion that Blue Knights Mixes with soft funk and relaxed dancefloor proved to be an audience favourite.

The guys from Blue Knights sure like to listen to Sade’s „Smooth Operator” and the Shakatak of some years ago. Very airy, light jazz piano, simply beautiful melodies and a rich tapestry of sound layers, all designed to transform the music into a perfect lovers night. When the lights of the city start to glimmer at sunset, many coloured nightlife fantasies converge in musicians’ minds. The happymakers of the german instrumental scene put you in a good mood, cheer you up and refresh their listeners withe the party urge.
