About: Big Boss Man formed in November 1998 and their sound is a hip heavy Hammond hybrid of pop, 6T's R'n'B / latin soul and funk.
As well as playing hundreds of concerts and festivals across the UK, Europe and even Russia, Big Boss Man’s music may sound familiar to you, being regularly played on television shows including Come Dine With Me, and broadcast on BBC Radio, by DJs including Mark Lamarr and Craig Charles. Their track 'Party 7' was featured in the international NIKE WORLD FOOTBALL '06 CAMPAIGN advert featuring Thierry Henry and Eric Cantana. The entire soundtrack to The Mighty Boosh’s BAFTA nominated short film “Sweet” was provided from tracks taken from the Big Boss Man’s “Humanize” album. The band have performed live on national Spanish television and had tracks included on XFM London Radio and “Later” magazine compilation albums (100,000 plus copies). Big Boss Man official remix of the modfather Paul Weller's single "The Bottle" went straight in to the UK top 20 and fast became a collector’s item.
