"With Thee Sacred Souls gaining co-signs everywhere from Alicia Keys to Black Pumas to Curren$y, it's clear that the purity of their artistry is turning heads in all the right places. The soul tradition turns once more, and this evocative, moving record is leading the way".

"The self-titled debut from Thee Sacred Souls is a collection of original "souldies", throwing it back in smooth style as they gorgeously sing about love and life. The Daptone Records release contains that labels vintage sound and rich production as the slick groove and pristine, 1960's inspired offerings, seep out".

"Formed in 2019 in San Diego via Instagram, Thee Sacred Souls are a three-piece (...) who play classic soul ... [Singer Josh] Lane's touchstone is Al Green and he's blessed with a tantalising falsetto perfect for expressing romantic longing and societal hurt, while the rhythm section approach their craft with warmth and a close attention to detail ... The heart-stopping "Weak For Your Love", with its deep Philly feel, the infectious Chicano soul keen of "Love Comes Easy" and the soft soul balladry of "Can I Call You Rose?" are all special indeed".

"If you're one of the millions to stream "Can I Call You Rose" on YouTube, you'll know that Thee Sacred Souls offer music of terrifyingly high quality. This fully formed debut is incontestable evidence of an important new act (...) [with] a weightless, spacious sound: barrel-aged deep soul, laced with Latin, lyrically inventive, and peculiarly fresh. [Josh] Lane's voice owes as much to Maxwell and Michael Kiwanuka as Curtis, Smokey and Sam Cooke, and in "Future Lover" and "Sorrow for Tomorrow" you'll find heart-grabbing brilliance".
