Music reviews of Tell 'Em What Your Name Is!

Music Review: Put on your dancing shoes
Rating: 4 Stars

Austin, Texas has deserved its name for giving birth to some fantastic music, but generally it's not been in the soul genre. Well, the city's remedied that with the release of this new CD by Black Joe Lewis. The music sounds like everything that I loved about soul back in the day: James Brown, Otis Redding, etc with modern production values so it doesn't just sound good on your car studio.

The music's raw and the lyrics are powerful and explicit, but the groove is good enough to get you up on your feet and dancing.

Favorites--I don't have one. "Gunpowder" was the song I heard first on the radio, but I like "Master Sold My Baby" and frankly, there really isn't a song that won't get you up and moving.

Rebecca Kyle, December 2009

Description of Tell 'Em What Your Name Is!

Tell `Em What Your Name Is!, the debut album from Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears is set for release by Lost Highway on March 17. Formed in Austin, TX, Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears is an eight-piece, garage-soul ensemble featuring groove-laden guitars, penetrating brass and a fiery frontman who exudes power and attitude.

Experiencing the raw energy of Black Joe's performances, accompanied by The Honeybears' masterful backing is the equivalent of a kick to the stomach. Their gut-shot style, felt in such songs as "Gunpowder", "Master Sold My Baby" and "I'm Broke", draws directly from their classic soul, R&B and blues influences. Inspiration from artists such as Otis Redding and The Bar-Kays, James Brown and Lightning Hopkins are clearly present in their songs and live shows, but Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears inject a full-tilt, unabashedly brash element to this old-school style.

Tell `Em What Your Name Is! was produced by Jim Eno of Spoon, and recorded, mostly live in the studio, in Austin, TX.
