The Dark Matters are a full-on soul-groove dance band: horns, organ, voices. Heavy riffs from the guitar, a driving bass line, drums that make you leave your seat for the sweat of the dance floor.  We are students of the music we all need; digging deep into the record crates to find the melodies that mean something, the grooves that bring us together. Although this sound is rooted in late '60s Memphis, it is part of a movement of bands that continue to use real instruments to make meaningful music.
