With their third album, Laura Rain And The Caesars drive us back to the golden era of soul, funk and rhythm and blues, and they do it on an extremely subtle, dynamic and very innovative way Deep influences of Motown, Stax, Royal, United Sound and Muscle Shoals can be found along the whole album, which presents twelve original songs by Laura Rain and guitar player and producer George Friend The album is the result of long working hours while both Laura and George were working on a long tour in 2014 The result is a brilliant album with a kind of music that could be described as ‘retro-modern-soul and funk’, where Laura proves to be a first class singer of great charisma and a noticeable commercial vision who, at the same time, is also able to create a personal and very contemporary style always rooted in deep Afroamerican musical tradition, that brings a new vision of black music, in line with twenty-first century new fashions and trends which, undoubtedly, will satisfy actual listeners
