Lefties Soul Connection

raw funk // soul

I’ll admit to having a certain weakness for Hammond organs “” and if you don’t share that with me you may not think much of Lefties Soul Connection, an Amsterdam based funk/soul outfit with a gravelly, retro sensibility and, yes, a mean Hammond player. Their drums bang loud and crisp, their guitars rock and wobble, and your speakers, if you’re doing it right, will buzz something fierce. (They also have an pretty fantastic music video for their song “Fais Do Do”; check it out!)

Sunny, carefree fun.

    I share that same weakness with you, Andrew. Of course, that’s a good thing for sure. This is the first I’ve heard of LSC, and I must say they have definitely piqued my interest. Great post!
