For all the funkateers this is the not the release to miss: today is the day for many of us – The Funky Drive Band releases French Kiss’ Craziness EP in vinyl format on Boogie Foxx Records & Tapes. For those who don’t know, this is not the first record by this funk group: 2011 was the year that they released their full length album Dance or Die (which is out of print & a very rare now) and in 2014 they came up with the Maxi 12″ Single – Funky Drive’z Me Crazy.

Unlike Dance or Die LP, which was entirely produced by Kâshif Kroch’, the current project is an introduction of the other composers/producers of the band, Jenny Lord (synth player of the band who composed “Lost Generation” song for the compilation Weird Jam Project), Alan Push (keyboard player of the band) and Omar (bass player of the band).
