Video: Kindness x Trouble Funk "That's Alright"

Synthesist Kindness (AKA Adam Bainbridge) convinced DC's own Trouble Funkto take the stage with him to shoot a live performance video of his single, "That's Alright." "That's Alright" is primarily built around samples of Trouble Funk's "Still Smokin'", so Bainbridge thought it was only appropriate to let them get some shine. "I hope we manage to capture something of the musicality and vibrancy of the go-go scene," he says, "and cement a little more the legacy of the incredible players, songwriters and talents who compose these bands." It's hard not to rejoice to the go-go captured in the vibrant, sweaty energy of the performance, so watch and jam out to it below.
