Sharon Jones is lead singer with Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings. She is one of the most popular American soul/funk singers. Sharon Jones was born in Augusta, Georgia on May 4th, 1956. As a child, she exhibited interest in music and imitated the songs and dances of James Brown, who shared her hometown. At a young age she began performing in church and then as a teenager, she began singing in talent shows and with local funk groups.
It was in 1996 when the Desco Records producers and Co-owners Phillip Lehman and Gabriel Roth called Jones to sing back-up for 70's soul legend Lee Fields. more
They were so impressed with Sharon Jones that they soon released a handful of singles in her name including Damn It's Hot, The Bump & Touch, along with her versions of funk classics Hook & Sling and I Got the Feelin' which were appreciated by people. In 2000, Lehman and Roth separated. Gabriel Roth went on to start Daptone Records with Sugarman 3 saxophonist Neal Sugarman, and they named their band as Dap Kings. Sharon Jones joined this new group.
In 2001, they released their debut album Dap Dippin' with the Dap-Kings &Sharon Jones. It was Jones's first full length recording and it eventually went on to become a big hit in her career. In 2005, they released another album ‘Naturally' which was also a success. The latest album 100 Days, 100 Nights was released in 2007. Sharon Jones is loved by her fans and contemporaries for successfully reviving the soul and funk movement which was at its height in the early 1970s. less
