ORDER “SEARCHING” NOW: luakabop.lnk.to/staplesjuniors
SEARCHING is the long-awaited but only second album from the Staples Jr. Singers, the Mississippi family band behind 1975’s critically acclaimed When Do We Get Paid (Luaka Bop, 2022).
The origins of this record go back to the eighties when the singers had a recording session at the legendary Muscle Shoals studio, and then lost the tapes. While this isn’t a recreation of the album-that-never-was, those tapes were certainly on all of our minds in the fall of 2023, when the Staples Jrs. gathered in a single room church to record together. Time is an instrument here as much as the room tone.
Catch the Staples in Brooklyn Tuesday June 25 for ONE-NITE ONLY: withfriends.co/event/20180619/General_Admission

And see the Staples in Europe this July: staplesjrsingers.com/?id=tour
