Trade of Hearts | Thee Sacred Souls at 2023 SXSW Music Festival

There’s something inevitable about the sound of Thee Sacred Souls. It is as if these ageless songs of love and loss have somehow always existed. As if drummer Alex Garcia, bassist Sal Samano and singer Josh Lane-have been playing together for a lifetime already. Produced by Bosco Mann (aka Daptone co-founder Gabriel Roth), their music is warm and textured, mixing the easygoing grace of sweet ’60s soul with the grit and groove of early ’70s R&B, and the performances are utterly intoxicating, with Lane’s weightless vocals anchored by the rhythm section’s deep pocket and infectious chemistry.
Hints of Chicano, Philly, Chicago, Memphis, and even Panama soul turn up in their music, and while it’s tempting to toss around labels like “retro” and “vintage” with a deliberately analog collection like this, there’s also something distinctly modern about the band that defies easy categorization, a rawness and a sincerity that transcends time and place.

[@joseobando8285]

I'm rolling in my love, so
Come on, baby, let me be
The king to your queen
My love is diamonds and your love is gold, ooh
You want my loving, don't you, baby?
You know that I do
So, let me trade you a heart for a heart
I will
I'm rolling in my love, so
Come on, baby, let me be
The king to your queen
My love is diamonds and your love is gold, ooh
This love's been growing inside my heart
(Inside his heart, growing up, baby)
I feel the same way you do
(If you feel the same way, let's trade a heart for heart, baby)
I feel the same way you do
(Inside his heart, growing up, baby)
I feel the same way you do
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
I feel the same way (I feel the same way)
I feel the same way (I feel the same way)
I feel the same way (I feel the same way)
I feel the same way
I feel, I feel the same way
