Thee Sacred Souls - Thee Sacred Souls LP
SKU: DAP074 OverviewDescription:
For Thee
Sacred Souls, the first time is often the charm. The band’s first
club dates led to a record deal with the revered Daptone label;
their first singles racked up more than ten million streams in a
year and garnered attention from Billboard, Rolling Stone, and
KCRW; and their first fans included the likes of Gary Clark Jr.,
The Black Pumas, Princess Nokia, and Timbaland. Now, the breakout
San Diego trio is ready to deliver yet another landmark first with
the release of their self-titled debut on Daptone
Records.
“Every
step of the way has just been so organic,” says drummer Alex
Garcia. “Things just seem to happen naturally when the three of us
get together.”
Indeed,
there’s something inevitable about the sound of Thee Sacred Souls,
as if Garcia and his bandmates—bassist Sal Samano and singer Josh
Lane—have been playing together for a lifetime already. Produced by
Bosco Mann (aka Daptone co-founder Gabriel Roth), Thee Sacred Souls
is a warm and textured record, mixing the easygoing grace of sweet
’60s soul with the grit and groove of early ’70s R&B, and the
performances are utterly intoxicating, with Lane’s weightless
vocals anchored by the rhythm section’s deep pocket and infectious
chemistry.
Hints of
Chicano, Philly, Chicago, Memphis, and even Panama soul turn up
here, and while it’s tempting to toss around labels like “retro”
with a deliberately analog collection like this, there’s also
something distinctly modern about the band that defies easy
categorization, a rawness and a sincerity that transcends time and
place.
