Something Going OnGrupo X celebrate twenty years since their first acclaimed album release, ’X-Posure’, with a brand new, hotly anticipated album, ‘Saturday Night’.Grupo X vocalist and legendary UK house, soul, funk and jazz artist, Lisa Millett says, "We wanted to make an album that feels live and gives listeners the feeling of a great night out. We love playing live and have really missed it.”The album features nine original dancefloor-friendly tracks, mixing diverse Latin rhythms from Cuba, Puerto Rico and Colombia with Grupo X’s trademark Latin soul sensibility. In a stellar line-up, Lisa Millett is on top form, featuring on seven of the nine tracks, with Venezuelan salsero Lino Rocha guesting for funky cha cha, El Sazón. It’s been a long journey. The album began in 2017 with three days recording at the famous Eve Studios, Stockport, followed by regular overdub sessions at the Butcher’s Shop studio in north London over the next three years. Grupo X released two singles as tasters from the album, ‘Something Going On’ (2018) and ‘Kind of Blue’ (2020), which received high praise and airplay from taste-making DJs, including Craig Charles on BBC 6Music.The album was finished and ready to go in 2020 when Covid struck. Grupo X are proud to finally be able to present, ‘Saturday Night’, along with lead single, ‘Soulful Man’.
