PHO

Cash It

2015-05-15

Rolling with powerful grooves and a variety that only a big funk band could provide is PHO, an eight-piece group from Minnesota. Each of the nine tracks on PHO’s debut album talks and talks with an expert flow. This is a group that knows when less is more, and teases listeners with tight riffs from the rhythm section and delicate melodies from the horns and guitar. Laden with sophistication and professionalism, the twists and turns of Cash It will guide you through it.
