It sounds like they're trying to be Dave Matthews Band with a girl singer.
Swung 16th notes? Check. Busy drums? Check. Funky bass? Check. Saxomaphone solo? Check. |

It may not be the DMB, but it sure sounds like Carter Beuford. If it's not him I have no clue!!!

Once again......I'm clueless, flummoxed and completely without an answer. The singer is beige to me -- doesn't stand out an I have no idea who she is.
happy to be playing drums

In an email to me, Neil M.'s first guess was correct...! And his second, just to keep the names on board, was Manu Katche...which it is not.
Our very own B.Ward got it...yes, Billy...you are correct with your WAI drummer and WAI 19's "public time." Cool term..."public time...!" "Live...from New York...it's...PUBLIC TIME!" Who ever steals that for a band name has to give kudo's and royalties to Mr. Ward... A clue...the bass player is a "Chick - n - Al..." amba

Amba - I only got right when you gave me clue. When the time comes, you should try another clue? Cornelius got it?... AGAIN?? He's such a wisenheimer!

Yes, Corn-man is the doodness of earsville...he gets these like a rat to a mini-marshmallow treat.
Kap, no this WAI is not Steve Jordan...but I could see why you might think that...high snare pitch...funkyness...the song was recorded in 1991. Another clue...this drummer spent his formidable years in the Middle East. amba |

"Hey Amba,
Complete shot in the dark for this one….is it Shawn Pelton?" No, MartialMan, Not Shawn...but is a twisted track so I can see why... amba

 ...if its not Stewart Copeland with Deborah Holland and Stanley Clarke-a.k.a.-Animal
Logic-i'm quitting drumming!!!!!!

You are correct Kappy... | ||

Yes, Stue and Animal Logic...from "Animal Logic II." The name of the song is "I'd do anything."
Deborah Holland on vocs...Manely Stanely on bass... All songs except "Stone in my shoe" were written by Holland. I.R.S. Records...which is Stuart's brothers', Miles Copeland's, company. Their biggest rotation on radio was "Rose colored glasses." Thought I might slip a toughie on you guys as most of you hear Stu with only the Police... Good one, Kap.... Animal Logic ONE Animal Logic TWO Wikipedia I know...but not much info on these guys...they only did the two albums...and just a few short tours... I though for sure you would all recognize Stuart's drumming right away...! So Billy, Corneilius and Kapdrums...good job. And John Curry...just a little late...but you did guess correctly, J.! Until next time.... Keep your ears open...and your mind full of mush... amba
