In their own words….
“The Irish music scene has recently experienced an eruption of indigenous R&B and Hip Hop acts and Creamy Goodness is managing to become an enigma amongst them with his smooth funky soul vibes and originality” – Music Review Unsigned
Creamy Goodness is the brainchild of Irish songwriter/producer and arranger Eamon Cooke. Eamon, who is just finished a degree in jazz performance, put together this group to bring his own style of groove music that is rarely seen in Ireland these days. Eamon is from Moate, Co. Westmeath a rural part of the midlands in Ireland where soul/funk and jazz is virtually nonexistent. He found himself writing music at an early age and was self taught as a guitar player up until he started his degree in music 4 years ago. In 2000 he became interested in Electronic music and started to produce House and Drum n Bass tracks to play in his live DJ sets. Eventually, as he learned more about soul/funk and jazz arrangements, he started to write Jazzy soul and R&B tunes which he developed into the Creamy Goodness sound. Eamon has also graduated from the prestigious Newpark Music school with a BA in Jazz performance Guitar.
Creamy Goodness has featured on numerous live radio shows including RTE Pulse which featured the 8 piece group and is scheduled to be podcast on the RTE site in the coming months.
Creamy Goodness also finished up the Sunday night of the Guinness Cork Jazz festival last October with an electric performance at the Guinness festival Jazz club.
With a line up of some of Irelands best R&B musicians in the collective outfit and an ever growing fan base, Creamy Goodness play a diverse array of hip hop grooves, jazz harmony, synths, keys and flute playing in blissful unison on a bed of brass. With a live show second to none and full of surprises such as guest MC’s and Break-dancers, Creamy has developed a live show that satisfies all. This pastiche of R&B/funk and soul is something that you so rarely hear in the Irish music scene nowadays and is a must.
