|Sharon Jones And The Dap-Kings - Give The People What They Want

In a lot of ways, the recent populist soul-revival movement of the last few years -- the one that turned Amy Winehouse into a martyr and Adele into the world's biggest-selling pop star -- started with a middle-aged woman with an unearthly sense of showmanship, one who led an 11-piece band of besuited goofs to festival stages across the world. Well, Sharon Jones and her Dap-Kings are still at it, and they'll release a new album called Give The People What They Want later this summer. Its first single is the fiery, driven "Retreat!," and you can stream it below.

Give The People What They Want is out 8/6 on Daptone.
