Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Los Angeles sextet's debut album is a vibrant, deeply infectious homage to 1960s Motown and Stax soul. Noticeably omitting guitars from their instrumentation, 'Pickin' Up the Pieces' relies entirely on driving basslines, Hammond organ, and the dynamic dual-vocal interplay of Michael Fitzpatrick and Noelle Scaggs.
