New Single: The CB3 - ‘Teacups & Candy’ ft. XANI

Soulful R&B funk trio The CB3 reveal new single ‘Teacups & Candy’ featuring XANI + announce Bunny Hop EP release date

Spellbinding Melbourne guitar, bass and drum trio The CB3 return in 2022 with their first new music in almost a year on new single ‘Teacups & Candy’. Following on from the punctuated rhythms and static energy of 2020’s ‘October’, and the playful warble of last year’s ‘40/40 Home’, the outfit’s latest bubbling groove rounds out a trio of eclectic singles lifted from The CB3’s forthcoming EP Bunny Hop. The band are thrilled to reveal that after an extended and anticipatory taste-tester of lifted singles over the past couple of years, the full sonic experience of Bunny Hop will finally be with us in a matter of weeks on Friday 25 February 2022 with ‘Teacups & Candy’ another delectable offering from the release.

Out today via CD Baby, The CB3’s new single ‘Teacups & Candy’ is a slow burning fuse that twists and turns along a vast landscape of uncanny beauty before gently crackling into a full blown explosion of fantasy funk. The single features an epic string solo from Melbourne's own Xani Kolac aka acclaimed violinist and Music Victoria Award nominee, XANI. Guitarist and frontman leader of the band Cristian Barbieri says; “This song was heavily inspired by Willy Wonker’s chocolate factory. Lickable wallpaper, chocolate rivers and fizzy lifting drinks: It’s wild! So naturally it called for an equally wild violin solo by Xani.”
