Let’s be honest. Most of today’s modern dance tracks are beat heavy and lyrically light.While there are some people who desire nothing more from their music than ecstacy dropping and nipple stroking, there are also people that yearn to find something deeper in the music besides a throbbing bass line. The wait just may be over. North Carolina-Virginia based duo Wedlock, featuring Paul Allgood and Jeff Hathaway, can be described as infectious modern groove meets the pop sensibilities of legendary old schoolers like Pet Shop Boys, Kraftwerk, Soft Cell and Erasure. The most striking element of Wedlock is their attempt at lyrical depth in their songs. Where most artists in his genre are content saying just anything over their music to accompany the groove, Wedlock reaches into the depths of its heart and soul- albeit an electronic one, to deliver a message. It is a message of self definition, self exploration and an essential celebration of musical freedoms. Allgood, first explored his musical possibilities as a hopeful solo artist without much success.Hathaway played in several raggae bands before striking out to do his own brand of German synth pop. The two met at a local songwriter’s meeting and immediately began writing.This union provided a blueprint for what would be Wedlock. The music just grabs you and the words, while delivered smoothly, reel you in like a largemouth bass caught in a river of dreams and curious wonder. As we speak, Wedlock are preparing to release their new follow-up album to their “Matrimony” EP which will be independently released on Kounterfeit Records. Only time and ultimately record sales will determine the fate of Wedlock’s musical future. But one thing is for sure. Wedlock is hell bent on making a musical impact and so far we have the benefit of listening and watching the whole thing transpire.
