So - how many jazzy types from Leeds does it take to hit the perfect groove? Nine, it seems, if vigorous young soul-hop collective Portmanteau are anything to go by. Inspired the likes of The Meters and Tower of Power as much as Snarky Puppy and Robert Glasper the band seek out all that is smartly danceable when jazz meets funk with an ear to hip-hop.
