To call Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings "soul revivalists" would be missing the point, as the hard-working crew, fronted by the lovable Sharon Jones, wouldn't have you believe the genre ever died. Still reeling from the release of their excellent 2010 effort, I Learned the Hard Way, the group have announced another monstrous tour throughout North America.
Kicking off in Knoxville, TN on March 10, the tour sees the soul crew covering some serious ground around the continent. They haven't forgotten Canada either, with scheduled stops set for a pile of cities north of the border, including Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver. All dates and cities are available below.
I Learned the Hard Way is out now via Daptone Records.
