Last minute Christmas shopping? Make it funky with the Dap-Kings!





Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings are a funk/soul band signed to Daptone Records, where the Dap-Kings are the house band. They are spearheads of a revivalist movement that aims to capture the essence of funk/soul music as it was at its height in the mid-1960s to mid-1970s. Part of the way this is achieved is to shun modern digital recording methods in favor of using traditional analog recording equipment. The type of instruments used by the band are limited to those that would have been available up until the mid-50's.
