C.O.C.O.

C.O.C.O. is a duo comprised of Olivia Ness on bass and vocals, and Chris Sutton (Hornet Leg, Dub Narcotic Sound System, Spider and the Webs, Hell Books) on drums and additional vocals. Olivia’s voice is soulful yet understated, sultry and steady, a highly melodic component which color her fat ‘n’ funky bass pulses. Chris gets busy on the traps with a highly percussive approach; nailing the beat straight into the floor, he’s prone to sail into poly-rhythmic flights of fancy with his entire kit utilized. His vocal interplay, often spoken, cleverly balances the tunes with an excellent subtle contrast. C.O.C.O. definitely have got the chops and they’re taking it to the dance-floor. In this day of dance clubs dominated by techno, C.O.C.O. could strike a chord in people searching for vintage funk and soul in a modern group for their boogie fix.
