Documented collaborators
Charles Bradley and His Extraordinaires helped redefine modern retro-soul with gospel-infused vocal power and a commanding stage presence. Discovered by Daptone founder Gabriel Roth, Bradley rose to prominence in the early 2010s with a string of deeply soulful albums and electrifying live performances that earned him praise from Paste Magazine and fans worldwide. Although no new performances occur posthumously after his passing in 2017, his legacy continues through tribute events, fan-led initiatives, and licensed reissues that keep his spirit alive in venues across the globe.
