If a band is going to list Sly and the Family Stone, the Time, and Bell Biv DeVoe as influences, it's a safe bet their music will get at least one play on the Idolator guesthouse's stereo. Fortunately, Miss Fairchild don't bring embarrassment to the sum of their inspirations. Their second album, Ooh La La, Sha Sha will be self-released September 4; to build anticipation (and give your guest editor something to listen to repeatedly for the last month), band turntablist/saxophonist Samuel P. Nice (also of New England DJ duo Certified Bananas) assembled a mixtape featuring the band's music mixed with selections by James Brown, Boston, and Tony! Toni! Toné!, among others. Worth downloading simply for including the forgotten Mick Jagger/Michael Jackson classic "State of Shock," the Miss Fairchild mixtape also includes "Vanilla Place," which shows off nearly all the band's appeal in less than four minutes: bright layered melodies, funky rhythms, and lead singer Daddy Wrall's charming, El DeBarge-like vocals.
