More on The Jaded Hearts Club:
Jaded Hearts Club were formed in 2017 when Jamie Davis, a British guitarist living in Los Angeles who previously ran Coxon’s Transcopic Records label in England, wanted to book a Beatles covers band to play at his birthday party. The cost proved to be excessive and the available tribute acts were drab, so Davis had a back-up plan. “I realised I knew a bunch of half decent British musician friends living in L.A. so I thought I’d ask if they’d come together to form an early ‘60s Cavern-era Beatles band.”
The band’s members enjoyed it so much, they continued: they played SXSW; a late night gig in Chicago after Bellamy had completed a stadium show with Muse; supported Roger Daltrey at The Royal Albert Hall in support of the Teenage Cancer Trust; and headlined London’s 100 Club. Back in Los Angeles, Bellamy and Davis started working on an album, with Bellamy producing at Red Room Studios in Los Angeles. The band decided to focus primarily on recording lost classics from the world of Northern Soul, supplemented by their raw, soulful takes on some famous standards from the era.
Northern Soul, as its known in the UK, is a music and dance movement that emerged in Northern England and the English Midlands in the late 1960s from the British mod scene, based on a particular style of American soul music, especially from the mid-1960s, with a heavy beat and fast tempo or from northern cities such as Detroit and Chicago. The movement was hugely popular throughout the 70s and 80s as Northern Soul specialist clubs and Northern Soul all nighters attracted fans from all over the UK, most famously at the Wigan Casino in Greater Manchester. A huge part of British mod culture, the scene continues to have a cult following and has spawned several popular compilation albums over the years as rare tracks are given a new lease on life after being discovered by the scene’s best DJs. The passion that Northern Soul club attendees have for the music, and the vigor for long hours of dancing, was the inspiration for Saturday Night Fever, the band Dexy’s Midnight Runners and the scene-setting movies Soulboy and Northern Soul.
