Sun-drenched vintage soul with a dusty, analog heart. Smooth vocal harmonies meet a tight, gritty rhythm section for late-afternoon drives and low-rider cruises.
Myron & E represent a cross-continental bridge in the modern soul revival, pairing California-based vocalists Myron Glasper and Eric 'E' Cooke with the Finnish production powerhouse Timmion Records and their house band, The Soul Investigators. Their sound identity is rooted in 'sweet soul' and 'low-rider oldies,' characterized by high-register harmonies and a mid-tempo groove that emphasizes analog warmth and rhythmic discipline.
Glasper, who previously toured as a dancer and backup singer for Erykah Badu, brings a seasoned R&B sensibility that balances E's gritty, soulful delivery. Their career peaked with the 2013 release 'Broadway' on Stones Throw Records, which solidified their status among crate-diggers and soul purists. Critically, they are lauded for their 'authentic' approach, avoiding the kitsch of many retro-acts by focusing on high-level musicianship and songwriting that mirrors the 1960s and 70s independent soul scenes. They occupy a unique cultural space that connects the European soul-collector circuit with the Chicano low-rider culture of the American West Coast.
