About this episode
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings are synonymous with the kind of soul revival music that has helped make Brooklyn the new capital of cool and put vinyl back into rotation. Jones joined the Soul Sisters podcast at the Chord Club in New York to promote an upcoming documentary of which she is the subject, called Miss Sharon Jones! The film chronicles the roller coaster year of 2013 when Jones was preparing to release her new album Give The People What They Want but was hit with a cancer diagnosis that put her career - and her life - in serious peril.
