Miami

Profile:
Soul/funk/disco band from Miami, Florida. Formed by producer/songwriter Willie Clarke in 1974, the original line-up comprised of Andrew Curran (guitar), Willie Jackson (bass), Robert Moore (vocals), George Perry (bass), Freddie Scott (drums), Warren Thompson (guitar), Bobby Williams (organ) and Clarke himself on percussion.

The band released a few albums but mainly served as the in-house band for T.K. Records. With the demise of that record label in the early 1980's, Miami was disbanded.
