We ran into a band and a singer the other day, unexpectedly as it happens, who we hadn't heard of before. She is Molly Hasbrook. They are Molly and the Mistakes.
She is fabulous, with a big big big BIG (did I say big) voice. She sings Aretha better than just about anybody but Aretha, and also reminds 1 a little bit of Janis Joplin. '60s soul and R&B is her thing and she just nails it.
The Mistakes provide a solid, no frills backing with just guitar, bass and drums. There's no left-over sounds, everything you hear is just what's needed, no more, no less. The Mistakes have the feel of this music almost as well as Molly herself.
Recommended.
