Together since May 2009, Alabama Shakes started off as The Shakes, defining themselves as a soul revival/rock and roll band. Consisting of Brittany Howard, Zac Cockrell, Steve Johnson and Heath Fogg, they have been together since high school and regularly sell out gigs in the US. Strangely, at the time of writing this they remain unsigned, although an ep of songs is available to buy via their website and they hope to release an album in the not too distant future.
The track
Hold On http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQXbf1i24C8
showcases Brittany Howard's impressive vocals and this video and others reveal them to have a professionalism beyond their years. Unfortunately there isn't much information about them on the web but it's probably best to let me music speak for itself.
