Mod Lewis

Old-School Rhythm & Blues. Original Rock 'n' Roll

About Me

Adam East writes and sings these songs that are influenced by the Motown, Stax and Parlophone records of the '60s, and the Stiff, Polydor and EMI of the late-'70s/early-'80s. He can't help it, so he gets the grooviest of his friends to play these songs with him. All this began in 2003 with a stunning debut at Portland's classic nightclub Satyricon. The studio was next for these six lads and and two lasses and a full album is in the can, ready to be released to an unsuspecting world. The recent success of Amy Winehouse and her retro/Motown sound is paving the way for Mod Lewis and their 21st century rhythm and soul........................................................ ............................................................ ..............
