I am a huuuge Sharon and Amy fan. In the same vane on the Daptone label, Charles "The Screaming Eagle of Soul" Bradley is worth checking out as well as the jazz-funk-rock Budos Band.
Saw Sharon & the Dap Kings last week.  Very, very entertaining.  They stole the show from the headliners.

Amy is Amy.  I wish there was more.
Yeah, for anybody just dipping a toe into this genre, Daptone Gold is a great sampler featuring many of the labels' bands. Cheers,
Spencer
