Sons of Cream
Carrying forward the legacy of Cream, one of rock’s most influential bands, Sons of Cream are a power trio featuring Malcolm Bruce, son of Jack Bruce, Kofi Baker, son of Ginger Baker, and Rob Johnson, Ginger Baker’s great-nephew. Together, they celebrate the music that shaped generations while creating a sound entirely their own. Drawing from blues, rock, jazz, folk and contemporary influences, the band honours the past without being confined by it. Sons of Cream make no bones about taking the original versions of Cream’s classic tunes as a starting point, but the twist of spontaneity is of fundamental importance. Embracing improvisation rather than note-for-note duplication, the band combines reimagined classics with original compositions that stand proudly on their own.

Set for release on 15th January 2027, their debut album Half And Half brings together six reimagined Cream classics and six original compositions. Recorded at Marshall Studio in Milton Keynes and self-produced by the band, the twelve-track album revisits the musicianship and adventurous spirit that made Cream so influential, while showcasing Sons of Cream’s own songwriting. Mixed by Chris Sheldon and mastered by Christian Wright at Abbey Road Studios, the record features original tracks exploring subjects including artificial intelligence, transparency and an increasingly post-truth world, with sounds ranging from the esoteric ‘Baked Pie’ to the contemporary themes of ‘Milkshake Duck’ and ‘Strange Vibrations’.
