Bones & Tones was conceived in the fall of 2009.
When Lloyd Haber was invited to put together a group for the Long Beach Jazz Festival he immediately knew he wanted a different sound with a world music flair. With the sound of Marimba and vibraphone as the lead voices from Warren Smith and Lloyd Haber, the one of a kind voice and percussion of Abdou Mboup and the creative bass of Jaribu Shahid, a unique sound was born. The group went into the studio in December of 2009, all eight tracks are originals from Warren Smith and Lloyd Haber. The spice on top are the vocals and kora from Abdou Mboup.
