Review of VooDoo Fest 10/26/08 New Orleans, LA - features reviews and pics of R.E.M., Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, Ozomatli, the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the Cold War Kids, & the Lee Boys In the heart of the reddest of the red states there is a grassroots movement hard at work to turn Texas blue. All that energy will have an outlet on Election Eve, spoken in the language Austinites know best: Music. Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings will be joined by Brownout and Austin music legend James McMurtry in an historic performance, Nov 3 7pm There weren’t any fireworks over this headliner, but the Chicago natives didn’t need them. Strutting across the stage after a very impressive performance by Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, Jeff Tweedy brought out his rag tag band for a universally sound set. Even if it was only months after their career defining residency here at the Riviera… The Dap-Kings (Amy Winehouse, Sharon Jones) are accomplished, ambitious talents in their own right. Through their home label, Daptone Records, they’re a major reason for the growing popularity in throwback soul; it just took a decade for everyone else to catch on. Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings - Espy Gershwin Room - St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia On Saturday June 7th, the Roots hosted a musical festival in Philadelphia. The boys from “Iladelph” decided to give their beloved city a taste of a delicious musical concoction of bands such as Sharon Jones + The Dap Kings, Gnarls Barkley, The Cool Kids, Deerhoof, J*Davey, and Esperanza Spalding. Diplo and ?uestlove also hit the decks in a Philadelphia played host to an eclectic bill this past Saturday with hip-hop’s premier band the Roots taking over Festival Pier for the first Roots Picnic. Gnarls Barkley, Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, Deerhoof and Diplo delivered genre-clashing sets last year’s bonnaroo was amazing. looking forward to this year (my company’s sending me to work there!). obviously, lots of big names on the bill, but I’m most excited about broken social scene, vampire wkend, and sharon jones/dap kings. actually, our company (ourstage.com) is giving away two tickets to anyone who proves they’re the biggest fan Listen to any track off of Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings’ latest effort, 100 Days, 100 Nights, and you’d swear it was some long-lost Motown recording, dripping with the kind of soul we’ve come to equate with that era.
