EVENT DESCRIPTION

An Evening with 

Joslyn & The Sweet Compression

—-

After growing up singing in the church choir, and cultivating her dynamic voice and performance skills in cover bands and stage plays, Joslyn Hampton teamed with her stepfather, Marty Charters (a touring guitarist and songwriter who has shared the stage with legends such as Junior Wells and Van Morrison), to compose a captivating set of tunes and assemble an ace band. Joslyn & The Sweet Compression (including Steve Holloman – keyboards, Smith Donaldson – bass, Rashawn Fleming – drums, Trevin Little – saxophone, and Chase Fleming – trombone and trumpet ) combine to deliver a hook-filled mix of funk and soul on their self-titled debut album, released in 2019. www.joslynandtsc.com

“Magical…gives everybody the joy.”
Billboard Magazine  
 
“A refreshing take on the neo-soul / funk sound, unbound by modern cliches.”
Glide Magazine  
 
“A marvel…an instant classic!”
Soul Tracks  
 
“I’ve never seen a band come up more quickly…with more immediate skill and swagger than Joslyn & the Sweet Compression. Joslyn’s vocal command and stage presence is special, and her band is brick-sh**house tight.”
Travis Young, Moonshiner’s Ball

“The music Joslyn Hampton conjures onstage is rich with the funk, soul, and rock ’n’ roll inspirations of multiple generations, and at the heart of the brassy attack of her band, The Sweet Compression, and in the clear and confident command of her singing, sits a core element: Groove.”
Walter Tunis, Lexington Herald-Leader
