About
Modern soul band Akina Adderley & The Vintage Playboys have been busy working all over Texas since migrating from Los Angeles two years ago. Front person/vocalist Akina lights up the stage as "the little woman with the big voice." Granddaughter of jazz trumpet great, Nat Adderley, Sr., great niece of jazz saxophone legend, "Cannonball" Adderley, and daughter of pianist and producer, Nat Adderley, Jr., Akina brings a distinguished musical pedigree to the Vintage Playboys, who are themselves a tight group of seasoned players from an eclectic musical background. The brainchild of four inspired musicians, AAVP has become a vital part of Austin's newly resurrected "Soul Scene." Their debut full-length record, simply titled "Akina Adderley & the Vintage Playboys", was released on March 28, 2009.
