Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings

Experience the undeniable power and raw charisma of Sharon Jones as she takes the stage at Paris’s legendary L’Olympia alongside her incomparable backing band, The Dap-Kings. Filmed at the peak of her late-career renaissance—just two years before her death in 2016—this blistering concert captures a true Queen of Soul delivering a masterclass in classic rhythm, funk, and blues. As the undisputed vanguard of 21st-century soul on Daptone Records, Jones brings electrifying authority to both stage and studio. Supported by a sharp-suited, ten-piece ensemble that commands the genre’s DNA—navigating dynamic breaks, seamless medleys, and tempo shifts with effortless precision—this performance honors and elevates the grand tradition of the classic 1960s soul revues. Moving seamlessly from poignant storytelling to infectious, hip-shaking funk, Jones controls every beat with warmth, wit, and fierce authenticity. Highlights include her deeply personal, reimagined rendition of Marvin Gaye’s “I Heard It Through The Grapevine,” showcasing her ability to claim iconic standards as uniquely her own. Complete with soaring solos and unforgettable showmanship, this sold-out performance stands as a timeless celebration of one of modern music's greatest performers.
