The Excitements - Sometimes Too Much Ain't Enough LP
SKU: PENNLP004
Description:
The Excitements are a hardworking band, almost hyperactive, so when
you are in a state of perpetual motion, things happen fast and time
flies. Within six months of their first show in March 2010, the
group was touring all over Europe, and recorded their first long
player. The album was a totally unexpected success which led the
band across the continent for a year and a half. It's sad to say,
but 'Sometimes Too Much Ain't Enough', the second LP, surpasses its
predecessor in all respects, and gives the impression that until
now the band was just... warming up.
The essence of their sound has not changed substantially over the
debut: early soul, r&b, and a hint of '50s gospel, but now
fully developed, sharpened and fine tuned, thanks to two years of
intense rehearsing and countless shows. It would be difficult to
pick out a standout song from this album, because it contains
twelve potential singles. Just listen to it, and see that
everything is here, great originals and covers arranged and
performed with a nod to all that you love, and a repertoire that
offers everything from sophisticated r&b, soul, gospel and
Latin, to Stax-style instrumentals and tear jerking, hypnotic
ballads.
Masterfully produced by Mike Mariconda, the band moves freely from
a small combo to an orchestra with a sense of dynamics that few
bands have today. The explosive voice of Koko Jean Davis demands
that you jump, dance, and weep all at the same time, confirming
that, indeed, there are times when too much simply ain't
enough.
