Making Alabama Shakes

摘要

Between floor-thumpinq beats and crowd-pleasing chorases, Brittany Howard can't seem to get used to the 3,000 fans stacked along the stage and pressed against the railings at New York's Terminal 5 concert hall."This could be the best night God ever gave us," she roars, before admitting that she usually screams to the point of exhaustion during live performances. Tonight she's holding back a bit. It's early October, and there are four long months of touring ahead for Howard and the other three musicians who make up Alabama Shakes, a soul band with Southern roots and a burgeoning next-big-thing status.
