Smelloship
In early 2023, a Monster of Funk rose from the Ottawa River with one goal in mind: to bring southern-soaked funk n' soul to the people.
"Bringing a little more grit to Ottawa’s funk-jazz scene, Smelloship deliver the goods on their latest LP. With plenty of tones that play on greats like The Meters and Herbie Hancock, this record really finds its grooves fast and lets them jam."
- Ottawa Life Magazine
"A funky soul-infused instrumental recording from Ottawa-based band Smelloship, a six-piece ensemble, and you can hear each one clearly but none overwhelms the other."

"As the evening unfolded and the room filled, the smile on my face- the one reflecting the quality of the music coming from the band- grew wider. The originals were both tight and textured, often rising to a boiling point and then falling back to hot."
