PREVIEW: Beebs and Her Money Makers, Konglom & a Sharon Jones Tribute Set ft. Control This! | Will’s Pub, Orlando, FL | Friday, December 9, 2016

by • December 8, 2016

2016 has been bittersweet. When we thought we’d lost our greatest star, we’d be halted by yet again another devastating loss within the musical community. David Bowie, Maurice White, Prince, Leon Russell, Merle Haggard, Phife Dawg, Leonard Cohen, (ok, this is just getting depressing now,) and most recently, the beloved, Sharon Jones. However, we must always remember:

There is comfort in loss if you seek it. There is light in the dark if you need it. There will always be music, if you only just pick your head up to hear it.

The legacy of Sharon Jones was one of joie de vivre, triumphant dance numbers, and beautiful ballads. She gave us 20 selfless years of sheer joy with her powerhouse voice alongside The Dap Kings and Will’s Pub is paying tribute to the star in honorable fashion.

 

The night will feature Beebs and Her Money Makers, Konglom & a Sharon Jones Tribute Set ft. Control ThisDJ BMF will also be playing all Daptone, Sharon Jones and Soul Sister Records all night in Lil Indies! There will be NO COVER at the door, however, a portion of proceeds will be donated to Daptone Records‘ preferred charity: Cure Pancreatic Cancer – The Lustgarten Foundation. The soul singer said just this past July,

I have cancer, cancer don’t have me.

Hell yea. A fighter and truth seeker until the very end.

The Control This! Sharon Jones tribute set will feature other amazing female vocalists the likes of Bunky Garrabrant, Jessy Lynn Martens, and Beebs! Fun fact: Jessy Lynn Martens’s beautiful voice is used in the hit animated TV show, Archer. She handles the vocals for the character Cherlene’s performances during the show. Historically, she sings country music but — and this shows Sharon Jones’s reach of inspiration — on Friday she’s a soul queen! 

Come out and help us pay tribute to the soul songstress as we celebrate her life and the life she gave us through her music. <3
