A few days ago I met a longtime friend of mine for a couple of pints and we talked a lot about everything possible. Among other things, I asked why there are no good soul groups these days. His answer was that they exist and you just have to find them. As an example, he mentioned two bands from California, Thee Sacred Souls and The Altons.
Last Friday The Altons released their first full length album Heartache In Room 14 and they describe their music as retro indie soul. That doesn't do her great songs justice. In addition to the great voice of Adriana Flores, they expand their sound with surf guitars and a flair of spaghetti western. It sounds strange at first, but it doesn't detract from the songs. It looks as if soul is still alive, only it has evolved.
