In his 1970 Playboy Interview, Ray Charles
described soul as “people who do things from the
heart.” In performance and on record, it is
undeniable that JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound are
100% soul. Like Otis Redding fronting the
Stooges, JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound get crowds
twisting and writhing on the floor, something
thatʼs been sorely missing from live music.
Brooks erupts with heart and raw emotion,
harnessing the Uptown Soundʼs post-punk
reimagining of JBʼs moves and MGʼs grooves to
unleash pure and uncompromising soul music
ranging from sweaty on-the-one workouts,
dance-punk booty shakers, garage rock thump
humps, and aching R&B ballads without a missed
step in between. JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound
are not just another throwback group; they came
to be during an age of war, envisioning an
aggressive dance music with lyrics that dig
deeper and hit harder than the usual “baby,
baby” fare.
