With a solid foundation in jazz, funk, and soul, incorporating influences from surf, klezmer, rock, and hip-hop, Very Cool People have been bringing jazz and funk back to the dance floor since 2007. Emerging from Riga, Latvia, this collective has lit up clubs and festivals from Estonia to Romania, from Spain to South Korea. Always open to new experiments, Very Cool People have collaborated with numerous guests from various countries.
Although they are primarily a live performance band, they already have 10 albums to their credit, which have received favorable critical acclaim and have been nominated for awards. Here is the list:
