Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears

TheTamshee says: if you are into your garage funky dance tunes then pop out and get the latest offerings from Black Joe lewis. He assembled the seven-piece Honeybears and created a Southern fried sound that’s three parts vintage Stax soul to two parts modern garage punk. Horns and percussion squeeze as tight as James Brown’s trousers, while retaining the rackety spontaneity of a band you’d catch playing for beers down some honky tonk back alley. There’s a seriously Seventies groove to the organ that crawls the kerbs of the slower numbers like an old Dodge Sedan. Extract from Helen Brown Telegraph article.
