"You've got to feel it" is the first thing that comes from the mouth of seasoned soul singer Sharon Jones when asked what makes great music. You've got to feel it! In your bones, your heart, in everything and everywhere! From the rumble and grumble of thick funk jerking you to the dance floor, to the soaring soul guaranteed to make you sigh, one thing is for sure: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings are legitimate heavy-hitters. Iconic-lead Sharon Jones is backed by the Dap-Kings (also known for their work as Amy Winehouse's rhythm section).

Bad Rabbits

Boston's Bad Rabbits is a unique mix of power and Soul with the definite propensity to explode on stage. They are the surprising combination of New Jack Swing with a hard, hybrid edge—the combined swagger of prince with the intensity of Bad Brains. The innovative genre is called New Crack Swing, a lively twist on an era they were genuinely influenced by, and perhaps only Dua Boakye has the vocals and presence to pull it off. He has that raw Soul that goes back to Sly and the Family Stone, a rare and unstoppable talent; uncanny, as well, when matched with his ability to sing as hard as any rocker today.
