Here is the follow-up of the mixtape "Born An Old Man" but in a Soul version !
With "Born An Old Man" I had illustrated the career of 4 american blusemens who knew the success in the 90's at an age where others are retiring. Here is the same story, a female singer and two soul singers who found success late in theirs life in the 2000's.
These 3 artists have worked at one time or another with the label Daptone records: A New York label specialized in old school recordings and production: old vintage equipment, no computer and everything on tape. So we have an old school soul in the heart but resolutely modern in the attitude! It's not about retrograde old stuff but rather energetic, intense and uncompromising soul music.
I let you discover them and go listen to all their discography!
It's never too late to become a star!
