Winners of the Maroon 5 sound-a-like contest, Jubeus manages to also infuse their music with the styles that influence them. Weather it’s the Latin feel of ‘Let’s Pick Up Ourselves’, the reggae sounding ‘Love Is In The Air’, or ‘Good Girl’ with its funk backbone, Jubeus actually blends styles together unlike so many other bands who just describe themselves that way to seem interesting. Natural Mood has the bands self described “intoxicating audio” refering to the Jubeus Tree, a South American tree whose nectar is often turned into an intoxicant. Natural Mood has plenty of B3 Hammond Organ whirls and Carlos Santana guitar tone to please many a Roots Rock or Jam Band fan.--Tim WarrenJAMES VINCENT MCMORROW
