The group was formed when its founder Steven Bernstein wanted to bring fun back to jazz in the mid-nineties. He had enough of serious faces and the tightness of the jazz scene. In his creation, he followed an old principle from the history of jazz. He reworked a well-known theme, adapting it to a genre that is easier for listeners to listen to because we already know the composition. Thus, Sex Mob reworked in their own, humorous and often revolutionary way the hits of cult groups such as Nirvana, Prince, Grateful Dead, ABBA, Rolling Stones, and a pinch of film themes that adorned James Bond films. The musicians, who have been creating together in Sex mob for years, have experience from many other projects of the most prominent musicians. Bernstein was the musical director of the legendary Lounge Lizards, where bassist Tony Scherr also played, saxophonist Briggan Krauss has already introduced himself to us in Slovenia with the band Babkas, and drummer Kenny Wollesen is a regular in Tom Waits' band. We are definitely looking forward to an interesting evening where everything old seems completely new.
