Young Disciples

A British / American acid jazz band, formed in London in 1990 by Carleen Anderson (vocals and keyboards); the daughter of James Brown's protegé Vicki Anderson and stepdaughter of Bobby Byrd, Marc Nelson (bass, guitar and organ) and Femi Williams (percussion and programming). Their most famous hit was the single, "Apparently Nothin'" (Talkin' Loud, 1991), which helped launch Anderson's solo career when the band split up.
