In case you haven't heard, we here at Downtown Lobby will be presenting our first show over at The Satellite this week and we are bringing a solid line up for a solid dance party. Chicago's very own JC Brooks and The Uptown Sound will headline and L.A. locals The Damselles and The TC4 will open up the show. But that's not all! We will be DJing in between band sets and kick off our very own dance party [...]
Chicago quartet JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound make rambunctious old-school soul that, like revivalists such as Fitz & the Tantrums and Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears, is as heavy on the pop hooks and punky edges as it on the grooves. The four-piece has been heating up in its hometown, and even performed for the mayor of Chicago, which in the old days used to get you a tax break,. But when they visit L.A. this week (coincidentally — and unfortunately for soul fans — the same night Black Joe Lewis is playing) Brooks and crew [...]
Ninety of my most enjoyable minutes each week are spent listening to a podcast called Filmspotting .

As a fan of both Wilco and the classic soul sound I was blown away when this came through my headphones yesterday after a discussion of Kevin Smith's Red State . MP3: JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound - I Am [...]

When someone tells me that everything will be fine, I am inclined to not believe it. However, snappy soul rockers JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound feel like pretty trustworthy fellows. Their new single "Everything Will Be Fine" is big and upbeat enough to put some real swagger in your step with its groovy key strokes, twangy guitar licks, and thumping rhythm section. As always the track is the perfect showcase for Brooks' smoky, theatrical howls. Listen here . JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound's [...]

The 2 Bears - "Ghosts & Zombies" (Brooks Haunted House Remix)
This Haunted House remix by Brooks on The 2 Bear's "Ghosts & Zombies" is eerie, sparse but still grooves. Most Darkwave and Witch House-like music has no groove or dance feel, but this Haunted House (different from Witch House) grooves all the way from the grave. Cheers to DFA records for putting this in their collection for 2011. Follow Me Send Me Facebook [...]
