So my new route to work has me driving past Ameoba twice daily – enough times to pay attention to the last minute announcement that Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings were doing a FREE in store performance tonight! This, we found to be great news since her show tomorrow night at the El Ray is sold out.
She’s dope. & if you like old soul music and you haven’t copped her new release “100 Days, 100 Nights”, or any of her past albums,
you should. Its this rare present day opportunity to genuinely experience what we, up until now, have only associated with the past.
Check out this Kenny Dope remix of “Keep On Looking”

Her 5(?) song set was lovely and if the chance comes for you to see her live, I highly recommend it! She’s so “then”, but I’m so glad its now!
