BT Rockwell: Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings... The Remix Project

I am excited to share with you my newest passion project! Paying tribute to the ever-soulful Sharon Jones and her skilled band The Dap-Kings, this is something you truly can enjoy time and time again.

Heavy on the instrumental side, also expect Sharon Jones belting out hooks, Rob Swift cutting on the wheels of steel, and my man Gino Blak spitting rhymes here and there.
