going with the flow

Native have been part of the club jazz scene for about a twelve years now, with several well-received albums under their belt and numerous guest appearances at popular club events such as Bebop Square and frontier in addition to their own extensive touring. They're now back with a new album barely a year after the internationally released Possibility. Going with the Flow, sees the band back on Nature Bliss, the same label that issued their Just Four album back in 2008. The album opens with the delightful Latin-tinged rhythms of Ritmo de Esperanza, a tune that deserves it's place in the canon of native classics. It's a tune that will go down well on the dance floor and has a catchy refrain that stays with you after the track is over.
