Thee Sacred Souls' self-titled debut, produced by Gabriel Roth, is a masterful mix of 60s soul and early 70s r&b, marked by a warmth and texture that is both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. The album effortlessly fuses elements of Chicano, Philly, Chicago, Memphis and even Panamanian soul, creating a sound that is deeply rooted yet distinctively contemporary. Lane's weightless vocals are a standout, perfectly complemented by the rhythm section's deep pocket and infectious chemistry. Tracks like the opener 'Can I Call You Rose?' and the heartfelt 'Easier Said Than Done' showcase his ability to infuse even simple lines with profound emotion. The soulful harmonies and lush arrangements evoke both the rawness of classic r&b and the soothing qualities of doo-wop. Unlike the high-energy approach of recent soul revivals by others, Thee Sacred Souls offer a more subdued, introspective take. Their music feels like a direct connection to the past, yet the sincerity and rawness of their sound make it feel timeless. The album's blend of soulful ballads and smooth grooves demonstrates a purity of artistry that has earned the group acclaim from peers and critics alike, making it a standout in today's soul music landscape.
