World's Greatest Sinners

About Me

World's Greatest Sinners are now Jordan Valentine & the Sunday Saints! Check out www.thesundaysaints.com for more info, and friend us at myspace.com/sundaysaints .
The World's Greatest Sinners are your almagamated tradeworkers union of the gracelessly fallen and the soulfully saved. Channelling the sweaty, knee-dropping, voddy-lemon-and-uppers ghosts of Wigan Casino, these eight kids from Boston bring the raw heart of R&B back to the dance floor by way of the back alley--right where it belongs. Equally deft with northern classics (from Chuck Wood and Cookie Jackson to Etta James and Ike & Tina) and searing originals, these eight soul survivors are keeping the faith.
