JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound to Perform Live at Euclid Records



















JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound will be returning to Euclid Records for another exhilarating performance on Saturday, Dec. 10, at 5 pm. When this highly entertaining soul band played in the store just over a year ago, Euclid Records was transformed into one happening dance area. That performance was recorded, and it led to the release a couple months back of the latest in the series of Euclid Sessions 7” singles, “Berry Please” backed with “What.”

Since 2007, JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound have been one of the leading lights of the soul revival trend. Their two albums, Beat of Our Own Drum and the very recent Want More, are chock full of terrific songwriting and the intensely vibrant vocals of JC Brooks himself. Still, it is in live performance that this band truly shines. They have appeared a number of times in St. Louis over the last couple of years, always winning new converts to the cause of revved-up, high energy, raw and uncompromising music. JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound will also be appearing that same night at Off Broadway, 3509 Lemp.

Euclid Records is always happy to present live music on its stage. Musicians who have performed there have frequently complimented the room on its especially good sound. With a band as exciting as JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound returning to that stage, we can only expect the reputation of Euclid Records as a performance space to improve.

Euclid Records is located at 601 E. Lockwood in Webster Groves. The store is loaded with thousands of new, used, and collectible LPs, CDs, and DVDs. And, of course, gift certificates are available for any amount.

Call the store at 314-961-8978 for more information.
