Pearly Sweets & the Platonics
Pick Yourself Up
Chicago, Ill.
Like a shot of adrenaline administered via bicycle tire pump, the virgin spin of Pick Yourself Up blasts eyeballs wide open and keeps teeth anxiously grinding as the new addiction claims its hold. Pearly Sweets’ music is the refreshing result of organ-based classic soul emotionally crammed into contemporary and new wave rock molds, borrowing as much from Little Richard as from Ben Folds. Gritty and dynamic, Mr. Sweets voice is exceedingly attractive, especially when exerted full-force in accord with the feverish stomp of an organ-based rocker such as "Boy Who Didn’t Care." For sonic reference, Pearly Sweets is like Elton John coked to the gills and jamming "Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting" on an organ. And not gay.-CF
