Velour draws inspiration from the smokin’ grooves of supergroups like the meters, galactic, the greyboy allstars, and the new mastersounds. with a blend of funk, jam, and acid jazz, velour creates an exciting listening and dance experience. sometimes in movements, their original pieces are as familiar as they are fresh. velour's vibes find the perfect balance between the pocket groove and the art of spacious improvisation. where funk meets acid jazz, velour will meet you there.
