In April, Chicago’s The Right Now released their second album of sultry retro-soul, Gets Over You. Produced by Sergio Rios (of Orgone), the album is 9 tunes that drip with emotion both unleashed and restrained. Around the same time they released a RSD-exclusive 7″, and last week they debuted the above video from that 7″ that showcases the warm, horn-laced production and the pipes of lead singer Stefanie Berecz. Along with JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound (among many others), ample raw soul is pouring out of Chicago these days.
