Rust Belt Refugees-Slumlord EP

'Rust Belt Refugees' are a Jazz quartet (Keys, Sax, Drums, Bass) that play the compositions of Michael Elam. Their four song debut EP ('Slumlord') is now available as a free download.

This project could be described as Urban, Swanky, Midnight smooth jazz that is reminiscent of adult themed, late night cable circa 1994...Yeah...you get the picture; martinis, strip clubs, dirty cops, and a healthy channeling of the underbelly of urban society. 'Slumlord' is a soundtrack for a place where good girls go bad and bad men find redemption as guardian angels, martyrs, and reluctant heroes.
