THE ROYAL FAMILY OF SOUL

THERE AREN’T MANY FAMILIES THAT HAVE HAD MORE OF AN IMPACT ON SOUL MUSIC THAN THE LEGENDARY WOMACK FAMILY. AND THAT TALENTED FAMILY CONTINUES TO MAKE AN IMPACT THROUGH THE EMERGENCE OF CURTIS “BINKY” WOMACK. BINKY IS THE SON OF THE LATE CURTIS WOMACK OF THE WOMACK BROTHERS AND HAS MADE A CAREER FOR HIMSELF AS A TOP TIER SESSION GUITARIST.

(April 6, 2020) He is music royalty, there is no question about that. And there aren't many families that have had more of an impact on soul music than the legendary Womack family. And that talented family continues to make an impact through the emergence of Curtis "Binky" Womack. Binky is the son of the late Curtis Womack of The Womack Brothers and has made a career for himself as a top tier session guitarist.

Binky's career transitioned from backing his father and his uncle, Bobby Womack, to working with stars like Usher and Snoop Dogg. He has become a SoulTracks favorite, with every album displaying his killer guitar work and a sound that harkens on the best elements of blues, southern soul and R&B.

Binky returns later this month with a new album, The Last Valentino (a reference to his father’s early 60s group), and we’re absolutely loving the sounds we’re hearing. And so we’re proud to give SoulTrackers a sneak peek with Binky’s cover of the classic Staple Singers’ smash, “Let’s Do It Again.” Dueting with talented LA-based singer Lisa Love, he’s created a song that has us smiling and swaying.
