The Soul City 3 Listening Experience
Event Information
3 is definitely a magic number. When we use the phrase "organ trio", we aren't just referring to specific instrumentation. We're referring to the great tradition of organ trio music, funky records, and the culture surrounding these things. In its purest form, we're talking about a Hammond organ run through a Leslie speaker, a semi-hollow body guitar ran directly to a tube amplifier without effects, and a minimal drum kit tuned high and resonant like the classic jazz records. These are constraints held to by fans of, and musicians within the genre. It's this challenge to be as creative as possible while working within these constraints that makes for some of the most interesting and impactful art. Jackson, Mississippi's The Soul City 3 are a perfect example of this. While they are faithful to the classic tradition of soul-jazz organ trio music, they are also uniquely and simultaneously very "Mississippi".
