The Transatlantics came together in 2007 born of a shared love for gritty old vinyl, cheap guitars and quality barbequed meats. Described by NME as “a young, white Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings,” The Transatlantic’s sound invokes the grainy warmth of southern American Soul and the rhythmic grunt of classic James Brown-era funk.
Following a huge 2009 which saw performances at Falls Festival, Big Day Out and Playground Weekender Festival, 2010 sees The Transatlantic's first offering of sweet retro soul released through Freestyle Records.
