NORTHERN SOULEROS & VAMP RECORDS PRESENT - MYRON & E + GENE WASHINGTON & IRONSIDES
NORTHERN SOULEROS & VAMP RECORDS PRESENT
MYRON & E (Stones Throw Recording Artists)
Myron & E and the Soul Investigators released a string of excellent funk 45s on the Timmion labelstarting with 2008's "Cold Game"/"I Can't Let You Get Away"before signing with Stones Throw last year. Since then, Myron & E have been focused on building their live performance, which includes sold-out shows before even having a full-length release and a stellar showing at SXSW. "We showed up to show out and that's what we did," E says of their SXSW appearance.
Myron & E are proud to be releasing their debut album, Broadway, this summer. For the album, the Soul Investigators provided demos from overseas with the duo stationed on the west coast writing the lyrics and singing all the vocals. E, in particular, has a practice of sending YouTube links of classic soul and R&B songs to the band to provide inspiration for recreating that vibe. One such link was to Edwin Starr's "Running Back and Forth." The Soul Investigators responded with "Everyday Love."
GENE WASHINGTON & IRONSIDES (Colemine Recording Artists)
Developed in 2010 by SF Bay Area natives, brothers Max and Joe Ramey, The Ironsides originated as a studio project dedicated to the revival of 60's and 70's soul music, with emphasis on a vivid cinematic, soundtrack vibe. Since the recording of their first 45 record released by the acclaimed Colemine Records, The Ironsides have moved into Soul with a capital "S" harkening back to the golden days of Stax and Motown. Now accompanied by diamond-in-the-rough, front man, and lady killer, Gene Washington brings to The Ironsides the tenacity of his vocal talent with a raw, authentic, and soulful sound. Gene Washington & The Ironsides are currently in the trenches of the studio, hoping to release their first album in 2014, but in the meantime can be seen in the Bay Area performing rare and obscure soul music.
