Harry Fulcher writes: THE LIMBIC SYSTEM,born to gig, is a cracking
band of friends who have shared their musical visions for over a
decade coming together to make original jazz music from a kinda
sorta Weather Report angle. It is also the name of an area of the
brain which deals with extreme emotions. A neurologist who fell
in love with the band and the music at a recent gig touched my arm
as she told me “I tell my students: the limbic system is where
all the excitement comes from” Amen!
The Limbic System is a reincarnation of "The Complete Dbs", a jazz
fusion band I formed in 1991 with Dhevdhas Nair, Kevin Sanders and
Sean Willmott. Kevin and I had been working together in my straight-ahead
jazz groups for a couple of years already. I met Dhevdhas on someone
else's gig and as soon as I heard him play I knew I had found the
keyboard player of my dreams! Around that time I was writing pieces
inspired by my love of the great fusion bands like Weather Report
and Pat Metheny and the time had come to form a band to perform
them. Dhevdhas and Kevin were obvious choices. Kevin recommended
Sean Willmott who turned out to be the drummer of my dreams. Zoe
Lambeth currently plays on sax instead of Kathryn Stagg (off having
twins) and Andy Christie, guitar, is exactly the man for the band.
