Foot Patrol is a band that smellebrates the wonders of the foot. Yes, we're talking dogs, gunboats, call them what you will - those sometimes smelly appendages are the subject of Foot Patrol's amorous attentions. TJ Wade, the blind singer and keyboard virtuoso happens to have a strong attraction to feet and if you are inclined to find that odd, consider this: "In August 2006, AOL released a database of the search terms submitted by their subscribers. In ranking only those phrases that included the word 'fetish' it was found that the most common search was for feet." --Wikipedia Yes, Foot Patrol is all about feet, as in making your feet move to funky grooves that combine 1980s Minneapolis funk with Hip-Hop, James Brown, New Wave, Funkadelic, video game music, and many more influences in an absurdist postmodern celebration. Producer and bassist Hung Nguyen began his musical collaborations with TJ while the latter was a student at the Texas School for the Blind. After graduation, TJ went on to work with such artists as Dwayne Wiggins, Keyshia Cole and Krucial Keys. The experience left TJ largely dissatisfied with the mainstream music industry and he eventually resumed his collaborations with Mr. Nguyen. Foot Patrol is a unique and ethnically diverse group that would make Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition proud. The members' ethnicity range from Vietnamese, Japanese, Mexican-American, African-American, Turkish-American to Anglo-American. Together they present a fresh and singular take on funk music. Their combination of showmanship, humor, and accomplished musical skills help to transcend the gimmicky trappings of other themed bands. In their short existence they have self-released three full length CD's and one EP: Toetry in Motion, Smellabration, Foot Worship Queens and No Small Feat. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Foot+Patrol">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
