As the London Jazz Scene moves more and more towards the dancefloor, Kansas Smitty’s is the cinematic and meditative side of instrumental music.The new record from Kansas Smitty’s “Things Happened Here” is a modern classic. It’s a concept album who’s soleconcept is to capture the complexity of the age we live in; lamenting its hardships and reflecting its beauty. Whilst their own-operatedvenue and bar was one of the conception points for the current jazz boom, Smitty’s have developed a musical voice wholly unique from what’s happening around them.
