At the end of June Tanika Charles pre-released the first
track from the forthcoming live EP "The Union Sessions", "Think Of You". The full EP is out today.
The first four songs appeared on her debut project "What? What! What?!" in 2010 with the final track "Since You Been Gone" from "The Gumption" (2019). Tanika has tried and tested them for over a decade at live
shows and brings that into the live studio sessions so don't think that
they are simply regurgitations of previous album tracks, and the EP is
very reasonably priced at only £1.79! All songs were recorded off the
floor in a single afternoon sitting at Union Sound without overdubs.
The band included some of the best musicians in Canada with D/SHON
Henderson and Tafari Anthony on vocals, Jemuel “J3M” Roberts (piano, EP
and synths) and the core band Damian Matthew (bass), Robb Cappelletto
(guitar) and Austin Gembora (drums) who are members of Toronto band
re.verse. We are told that James Jones popped in for all of 20 minutes to record his verse on "Parkdale".
Our picks are "Parkdale", "Since You've Been Gone" and "Think Of You".
