Newban has been played on NTS over 20 times, featured on 22 episodes and was first played on 5 November 2012.

One of the sweetest ensemble funk albums of the 70s, despite the fact that most people know little about the group! Newban have a sound that's almost a jazzier take on the Earth Wind & Fire groove of the time -- a style that's warm and fluid, and which really gets past the cliches of other larger funk acts -- and manages to find a space in sound that's all its own!

Creators of two extremely rare funk/rare groove LPs, not much was initially known…
