  • Midnight Special Songlist
    west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

  • Doo-Wop (That Thing)”
    “Respect is just a minimum”: Self-empowerment in Lauryn Hill’s “Doo-Wop (That Thing)” Maisie Hulbert University of Cambridge 3,995 words Maisie Hulbert Self-empowerment in Lauryn Hill In his 2016 Man Booker Prize winning satirical novel The Sellout, Paul Beatty’s narrator states that “the black experience used to come with lots of bullshit, but at least there was some fucking privacy” (p. 230). The global hip-hop industry admittedly circulates images of blackness that were once silenced, but on the terms of an economically and socially dominant order. The resulting fascination with stereotypes of blackness, essentialised by those in positions of corporate power, means hip-hop becomes an increasingly complex identity- forming tool for young people worldwide. From a series of case studies exploring young black women’s relationship to hip-hop, Lauren Leigh Kelly argues that many “construct their identities in relation to media representations of blackness and femininity in hip-hop music and culture” (2015, p. 530). However, the stereotypical images of blackness which are encouraged ignore elements of choice, empowerment and re-contextualisation in hip-hop whilst meeting the widespread demand for imagery of a racial “Other”. The often negative associations with such images denies individuals the opportunity to identify their own relationship towards them, independent of media scrutiny and judgement. Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Wop (That Thing)” “sounds gender” (Bradley, 2015) through lyrics, flow, and multimedia, working to empower black femininities with self-respect. I argue that Hill’s track voices specifically black female concerns, prioritising notions of community central to black feminist thought (Collins, 2009).

    COUNTRY READ MUSIC LIST WATCH Ken Burns’ Country Music New Eight-part Series September 15-25, 2019 EX PLORE SEPTEMBER 2019 SUGGESTED READING LIST COUNTRY MUSIC is a uniquely American art form that has deep roots in ballads, blues and hymns that evolved from small rural and mountain settings in the South and West during the 20th century. In many ways, this music has become known to Americans through the stories and music of artists like Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Garth Brooks, and many others. In September 2019, PBS will debut the documentary film “Country Music.” Directed and produced by Ken Burns, this film is aneight-part, 16 hour documentary series that explores the evolution of country music, while focusing on the biographies of fascinating characters and their unforgettable stories.

  • The Year in Southern Soul
    December 28, 2019: 2019: The Year In Southern Soul Thrown down like a gauntlet near the end of 2018, Tucka's album "Working With The Feeling" was a challenge to every other artist to match or surpass in 2019, and although many recording artists arguably came close, no one succeeded at de-throning the sugar-coated vocalist from Louisiana. "Big Train" (DBN's #1 Song of the Year) crested in the first quarter of 2019 and found the pillow-talking candy- lander banging away at his own unique, acoustic version of the blues. As for the challengers, just about everybody who was anybody among the major artists put out an album. Avail Hollywood, J-Wonn, L.J. Echols, T.K. Soul, O.B. Buchana, J. Red, Bigg Robb, Big G, Ms. Jody, Vick Allen, Sir Charles Jones, Willie Clayton and Calvin Richardson among others all published new collections, making 2019 a banner year for recording. But although the collective material was of high quality, none were career-defining albums for the individual artists, nor were any industry-shaking events in the way that Pokey Bear's "My Sidepiece" continued to be. In fact, the one major artist who didn't record a long-play set-- Pokey Bear-- dominated the southern soul concert circuit as the #1 headliner along with Tucka, making Louisiana (Pokey's new home via Houston) doubly relevant. When Daddy B. Nice posted the annual Blues Is Alright Tour for the first quarter of 2020, Pokey Bear was the single artist to ace every venue--in demand everywhere.

  • Transforming Southern Soul: an Examination of Stax Fax and Stax
    Transforming Southern Soul: An Examination of Stax Fax and Stax Records During the Late 1960s Chandler Vaught Rhodes Institute for Regional Studies 2017 Vaught 2 Special Thanks to Al Bell Deanie Parker Jeff Kollath Jennifer Campbell And Dr. Charles Hughes Vaught 3 In the early 1960s Deanie Parker moved from Ironton, Ohio to Memphis, Tennessee in order to finish high school and be with her mother, who was living in the city at the time. She attended Hamilton High School, where future star Carla Thomas would also graduate from, and became the lead female vocalist for a student band.1 Encouraged by the school’s glee club instructor, the group took part in a Beale Street music competition for which the first place prize was an opportunity to audition for Stax Records. “And we won that prize,” Parker recalls, “So that was how I managed to get into Stax Records and to learn what it was they did in that old Capitol Theater that had been converted into a recording company. Which was behind Satellite Record Shop on McLemore at College.”2 Though Deanie would not go on to become a hit musician, she would become an integral part of Stax Records. In 1965 Jim Stewart, the president of Stax, hired Deanie as the company’s first publicist. The ultimate goal of her job was to package and advertise the product (the songs and artists of Stax) to both the DJs who played their music and the general public as a whole.3 In the fall of 1968 a new marketing tool was developed that would aid her in this endeavor, Stax’s very own magazine called Stax Fax.
