Chuckola

Thanks for visiting The Science of Soul , this week I feature as promised a couple of shows back the debut album from Detroit soulman Chuckola, titled "Never Give Up," I highly recommend this set it's packed with great songs and very well produced, The album came out in the latter part of 2018 and is really starting to gain momentum, I think 2019 is gonna be a good year for Chuck, and I look forward to seeing the rise of this mans career. Tuskegee's very own Mr Cadillac Man is back with a great new release, "I Know You Been Cheatin''" hot the heals of his big novelty hit of last year "Viagra Man," the new single is gonna do very well I think particularly on the vibrant Southern soul scene. It's great to see 'my man' Mo' B back with a great new single  he's called "My Sunshine." Mo is one of the real nice guys in the music business, I would love to see him break big in 2019.

Ural Thomas biography:-

Thomas was a singer on the rise in the mid- to late-'60s, releasing singles on UNI Records (home to Neil Diamond and Dead Moon precursor group the Lollipop Shoppe) and playing shows with Otis Redding and the Rolling Stones. But after getting run through the music industry wringer, he walked away from the business, returned to his hometown of Portland, and quietly hosted jam sessions out of his home. Enter Magee, a DJ with a deep love of vintage soul and funk, who befriended Thomas and convinced him to get back in the game. With a few years of live performances under their collective belt, Ural Thomas and the Pain finally entered the studio and solidified their frontman's return. And if you've seen the band in concert, you know precisely what you're going to get with this self-titled double LP (out on Mississippi Records): a collection of heartfelt R&B that aims to replicate the glory days of the mid-'60s when labels like Motown and Stax were at their peaks. more @ www.uralthomasandthepain.com
