The news broke early this January that 2017 would mark the return of funk and acid jazz band Jamiroquai following a seven year hiatus. The British duo, led by the charismatic voice of Jay Kay, released its new album on March 31st after being motivated to join the conversation about modern day issues. “The inspiration for Automation is based on a recognition of the rise of artificial intelligence and technology in our world today,” said Kay. “We humans are beginning to forget the more pleasant, simple and eloquent things in life and in our environment, including our personal relationships with one another.” With this message fuelling their fire, Jamiroquai are coming to Barcelona’s summer festival Cruïlla. A prominent component of the London-based funk and acid jazz movement in the early Nineties, the band remain a force to be reckoned with on the scene, as gigs in London earlier this year proved, where enthusiastic crowds were eager to welcome the duo back on stage. Now, Jamiroquai’s signature style has hints of robotic sounds, reminiscent of Daft Punk, but fans shouldn’t feel too anxious—there are still plenty of funky textured tunes pumping from their sound system.
