Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings

Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings have come a long way since their humble beginnings nearly a decade ago. Steeped in the gilded and gritty sounds of gospel, soul, and funk, this nine-piece act continued to electrify fans, disc jockeys, critics, record collectors, and bloggers the world over with their heart-felt sound. Their devotion to soul music is clearly demonstrated on the band’s four critically acclaimed albums Dap Dippin (2002), Naturally (2005), 100 Days, 100 Nights (2007), and their newest release I Learned The Hard Way (2010), all captured and released by the independent Daptone Records, in Brooklyn, NY. Their albums recall an analog era led by iconic studios like those at Motown and Stax Records and have thrust the fifty-four year old Augusta, GA native and crew into the multimedia limelight. All ages. ztickets available at Phoenix Convention Center box office (NO SVR FEES - 100 N. 3rd Street, 602-262-7272), Stinkweeds Records, Hoodlums Records and TICKETMASTER
