JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound - Get It Together / I'm Trying to Break Your Heart

JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound kick out 2011 with this limited edition EP. Includes their fantastic soul cover of Wilco's 'I Am Trying To Break Your Heart', approved by Mr Tweedy himself, plus three more tracks, two of them exclusive to this release. Like Otis Redding fronting the Stooges, JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound get crowds twisting and writhing on the floor, something that's been sorely missing from live music. Brooks erupts with heart and raw emotion, harnessing the Uptown Sound's post-punk reimagining of JB's moves and MGs grooves to unleash pure and uncompromising soul music ranging from sweaty on-the-one workouts, dance-punk booty shakers, garage rock thump humps, and aching R&B ballads without a missed step in between. The son of a Jersey funk diva set adrift by the disco era, he's renowned for his take-no-prisoners stage style, giving you no other option than to get up and move! Guaranteed to make you dance by any means necessary, JC Brooks is the new sound of Chicago.
