BIG THANKS TO EVERYBODY AT ROOTS FEST! IT WAS A FANTASTIC TIME!
COME CHECK US OUT AT EXIT / IN ON FRIDAY MAY 21ST
We've got some serious musical firepower coming your way. Denver's, "The Congress", w/ former "JUNK BUDDHA" drummer Damon Scott and Chicago's exploding soul band, "The Right Now". And of course the funky elevations and power house of sound, "Sky Hi." You would surely regret missing this trifecta of musical goodness, so don't!

The Congress, initially formed by guitarist Scott Lane and vocalist/guitarist Jonathan Meadows, blends feel-good American music and authentic Southern R&B to produce a fresh Rock sound in an industry of puzzling sub-genres. The group's sound is carried by the true strength of Meadows' tenor voice, which glides over a decidedly modern groove with a nod to the vintage Virginia traditions that seep from their lyrics. Meadows and Lane have both toured extensively throughout the east coast but were drawn to Denver due to it's proximity to the Rocky Mountains and it's burgeoning music scene.
On this special night, "The Congress" will be joined for the entire set by Sky Hi keyboardist "Bus Stop" as well as special appearances by the Sky Hi Horns. You are gonna wanna hear this!
And now, "The Congress" has been kind enough to allow us to give away their amazing track 'Loretta' off their new self-titled album. If you download this and listen to it, then still don't think you just HAVE to make it out to the show, just return the file to us for a full money-back guarantee! ;)

The Right Now plays soul music, and soul music is all about feeling; not style, not fashion, but emotion. The band's new album Carry Me Home, released on March 3, 2010, lives within the four walls erected by the arresting lead vocalist Stefanie Berecz, the stellar songcraft of Brendan O'Connell, the spot-on horns and layers of back-up vocals, and a solid bedrock of rhythm.
These guys bring it every time we play with them, and we guarantee they will be banging out some quality soul numbers you will love!

Sky Hi has been kicking around the Southeast for some time now, leaving behind them a swath of weak kneed, sweaty funk fans in their wake. Building on a mixture of funk, soul and latin elements, the Sky Hi crew craft a sound that is unique in it's approach and delicate in it's subtle nuances.
G.E.D. Soul is proud to be the home of the group's first ever 7inch release, with a full length soon to follow. Sky Hi was recently featured on Lightning 100's Local Lightning Spotlight and will be headlining Root's Fest on May 15th.
