about
Though playfulness and exuberance are an integral part of Skip The Needle’s performances, reflections on issues of justice and equity, especially black, queer and women’s rights are the driving force behind much of their collective writing. The songs on “Wake Up Wake Up Wake Up” reflect the idea that socially conscious music can edify, inspire and rejuvenate. Four distinctly different voices and musical styles coming together as one spawned the name Skip The Needle and their messages of hope and inspiration, delivered with driving, infectious funk, rock and soul.

If I have to choose one favorite song, right now it's Resolution. The story hit home with me. The performance tells the truth, like the entire record. OK, but Rise is fucking awesome. Cash has a deep southern gospel blues groove she totally claims. Damn. So good... ya, don't be making me choose...
