Deep Street Soul Essentials

All Hammond-organ squeal, urban trashcan grooves and chunky guitar chops, Deep Street Soul nailed a heavy claim to Melbourne's exploding soul-funk scene with their self-titled debut of 2009. Besotted with the late-'60s grit and glide of the Meters and Booker T's M.G.'s, the hard-hitting quartet earned its stage blisters over three years back home before their first European jaunt blew away all comers in 2010. Mighty May Johnson augmented a seemingly endless roll call of lung-busting diva cameos on 2011's Look Out, Watch Out and a blue streak of horns chimed in for their Glastonbury debut in 2013. Best dress to sweat.
