Hot on the heels of one time label mates Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings’ UK shows comes old school funk/soul legend Lee Fields with a string of UK and Irish gigs.
Having cut his first 45 in 1969 and having a series of follow-ups on tiny labels in the 70s, Fields disappeared in the 80s only to resurface a decade later on the Ace label before landing at Desco and it’s offspring, Daptone and Soul Fire.
It’s a long overdue return to to the UK for his legion of devoted fans and he lands in the Uk in April along with his current group, The Expressions.
