The PutBacks have performed as part of PBS 106.7 fm Live Music Week (2008/9), at Melbourne’s premier funk night ‘Soul-A-Go-Go’ and have opened for Australian premier funk outfit The Bamboos, ‘The Menahan Street Band featuring Charles Bradley’ during their Australian tour in 2009, and have just recently opened for Booker T Jones in Sydney and Melbourne. The PutBacks instrumental funk-killer-floor-filler ‘The Diamond Cutter’, released March 2009 as a split 7” 45 on Hope Street Recordings, has received healthy rotation on Australian, US and UK radio, featured on Canadian DJ Double K’s “The New Funk Mix” available at www.parkdalefunk.com and profiled on DJ Prestige’s blog page . The PutBacks strengths are a deep funky groove with a raw, melodic sound.
