Im Thankful feat. Spanky Wilson
~ Spanky Wilson & The Quantic Soul Orchestra

Description

Renowned as a soul singer beyond comparison on both sides of the Atlantic, she has consistently released quality music for the past four decades, always collaborating with some of the most talented and respected producers of the day.

True to form, Im Thankful saw her team up with Will Holland of The Quantic Soul Orchestra to record a stunning collection of 21st Century jazz, funk, big band and soul music.

Will and Spanky first collaborated in 2005 on two tracks for the third Quantic album, Mishaps Happening. Inspired by this positive experience, they decided to write an album together.

Months of work culminated in a week-long recording session in Spanky‚ hometown of Los Angeles, California. Working closely with Todd Simon on the horn arrangements, Will drafted in some of the US funk-soul scene\'s finest session players to bring that raw, QSO sound to the proceedings - creating an album that is as fitting on the dancefloor as it is in any enthusiast s record collection. As for Spanky herself, she remains as inspirational now as she has always been, Versatile, emotional and honest in any musical style she turns her hand to, this collaboration with The Quantic Soul Orchestra is further evidence of her formidable talent.
