Description
The Lucky 13s are steeped in soul, melding vintage rhythm and blues; drawing inspiration from the musical origins of decade's prior while crafting a message relevant for the modern era.
Powerful, soulful & uplifting - The Lucky 13s originate from the South East of England. The group have been rapidly gaining momentum in the British neo-soul scene. Now signed to the Hillside Global record label, the band embark with the release of their debut album 'Gamble My Soul'. The record draws inspiration from the Soul and Rhythm & Blues pioneers of decade's prior while crafting a message relevant for today's generation.
The band features frontman Jamie Johnson who brings his effortless yet powerful vocal performances to the ensemble, described by critics as "compelling, gravely, & symphonious". Jamie's vocals synergise with the equally powerful force of The Lucky 13s horn section, both sharp and catchy. These brass lines layer over the deep pocket that grounds the band's groove created by bass guitarist John Bucket and the man behind the beat Adam Hayes. Award-winning guitarist & composer Dudley Ross provides seamlessly melodic and passionate guitar work that has been recognised by legendary players such as Hamish Stuart, Sir Paul McCartney and Robben Ford, to name a few!
The last section of this wall of sound is laid down by the group's keyboardist Josh Roots who provides tones synonymous with the golden era of soul that evokes the sounds that came out of legendary studios Muscle Shoals and Hitsville USA.
