Daptone Records Releases 7 Inch Singles Collection as Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and Budos Band Take Off for Summer Festival Season
Brooklyn-based soul-funk powerhouse Daptone Records released a special digital-only compilation today featuring 13 tracks previously available only on vinyl.

The compilation comes just as Daptone artists Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and the Budos Band brace for summer festival season. After becoming THE band to watch in 2007, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings have been invited to shake things up at a slew of summer events, including The Roots first Picnic in the Park, taking place this Saturday, June 7th in the backpack hip-hoppers’ native Philly.

The soul-stomping singer and her band will performing tracks from their latest release 100 Days, 100 Nights (as well as earlier albums Dap Dippin’ With Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and Naturally) and may just throw in their cover of Kenny Rogers’s “I Just Stopped in To See What Condition My Condition Was In,” a previously rare treat featured on the new 7 inch Singles Collection out today.
Afrobeat funksters Budos Band will also be taking their show on the road, headlining their native Staten Island’s first ever music festival, Rock the Harbor on Saturday, June 14th before hitting the Vancouver International Jazz Festival and Victoria, British Colombia’s JazzFest International among other dates.
