Mettaphor

Sweet jazzy funk / nu jazz / soul infused groove

It’s a family affair.......of the musical kind!

Mettaphor are on a National Tour from the Sunshine Coast Qld & tour they do, actually their gig guide often resembles a travel itinerary & they live entirely from their art – 100% original nujazzsoul, its a funk cool euro café jazz kind of thing.

The passion is making a living from their art as minstrels which is an age old honest tradition that they don’t take for granted, its a commitment to generate a soundtrack for peoples lives, the moment, space or gathering – its all about love on all levels. Intuition & trust in the belief that music is a connecting force with self & with others has taken mettaphor on a journey to create funky jazz affirmations, putting out the love, keeping it feel good and with one eye holding on to the chill of the café scene in europe / ibiza / dafe del mar / kudetar
