About Thee Sacred Souls

Thee Sacred Souls stand at the forefront of the contemporary soul renaissance. Formed in 2019 by singer Josh Lane, bassist Sal Samano, and drummer Alex Garcia, the trio cultivated a distinct sound anchored in the rich lineage of ’60s and ’70s Chicano soul, Sweet R&B, and classic balladry.

The Sound & Pedigree

Their craft blends the warm analog textures of classic Motown and Stax recordings with the romantic, slow-burning sensibilities of West Coast lowrider culture. Lane’s effortless, silky falsetto floats over Samano and Garcia’s tight, pocket-heavy rhythm section, producing compositions that feel both historically rooted and distinctly modern.

Their breakthrough single, “Can I Call You Rose?”, propelled the group into national consciousness, catching the ear of Daptone Records co-founder Gabriel Roth (Bosco Mann). Signed to Daptone’s California imprint, Penrose Records, the band quickly cemented their status as torchbearers of the modern soul movement.

The Homecoming

From early sets in local South Bay spaces and dive bars to sold-out global tours and festival stages, this headlining performance at Gallagher Square represents a major homecoming triumph. Following their critically acclaimed 2022 self-titled debut, their 2024 sophomore LP, Got a Story to Tell, demonstrated elevated songwriting, incorporating subtle rocksteady, Latin jazz, and lush string arrangements into their signature groove.

Essential tracks:

• “Can I Call You Rose?”
• “Easier Said Than Done”
• “Weak for Your Love”
• “Lucid Girl”
• “My Heart Is Drowning”
• “Waiting on the Right Time”

About LA LOM

LA LOM (The Los Angeles League of Musicians) is an instrumental trio that weaves together the sonic tapestry of Southern California and Latin America. Composed of guitarist Zac Sokolow, bassist Jake Faulkner, and percussionist Nicholas Baker, LA LOM fuses classic Peruvian chicha, romantic boleros, Son Jarocho, and Afro-Cuban cumbia with Spaghetti Western guitar twang and vintage rock ‘n’ roll momentum.

Their 2024 self-titled debut album on Verve Records earned widespread acclaim for its cinematic quality, evoking mid-century lounge elegance and desert soundscapes. Tracks like “Juana la Cubana” and “Angels Point” highlight their ability to reimagine traditional melodies through intricate rhythm arrangements and soaring guitar leads.

Why they fit this bill: LA LOM’s hypnotic Latin grooves and vintage instrumentations serve as the perfect instrumental counterpoint to Thee Sacred Souls’ vocal-heavy soul, setting a rich, rhythmic mood for the evening.

About The Womack Sisters

The Womack Sisters—BG, Zeimani, and Kucha Womack—inherit one of the most storied bloodlines in American popular music. As daughters of influential songwriting duo Womack & Womack (Cecil and Linda Womack), granddaughters of the legendary Sam Cooke, and nieces of Bobby Womack, soul music is fundamentally woven into their DNA.

Raised between London, Paris, and Los Angeles while touring alongside their parents, the sisters refined their craft from an early age. Their sound bridges church-honed gospel foundations with modern R&B phrasing, driven by precise three-part vocal arrangements and deeply personal lyricism.

Now recording under Daptone Records, the sisters continue to build their own catalog with compelling releases like “If You Want Me” and “I Just Don’t Want You (To Say Goodbye),” bringing raw emotion and undeniable heritage to every performance.
