The Altons - When You Go (That's When You'll Know)

Directed by Jessica Magaña (Red Heart Media)
Though Bryan Ponce and Adriana Flores share the stage with Joey Q as part of the East LA souldies outfit Thee Sinseers, they really step into the spotlight with The Altons, a group they themselves founded along with drummer Caitlin Moss and bassist Gabriel Maldonado . On this their debut single on Penrose, Bryan sings the lead with a smoky-sweet falsetto that bends tenderly from growl to howl and back again. The group takes a turn through a classic Miracles-style mid-tempo groove on the A-side, leaving you helplessly addicted to their sweet eponymous refrain, When you go that’s when you’ll know… However, it’s the B-side that prompted producer Bosco Mann to declare Bryan Ponce the most underrated singer on the scene today. Of course that won’t last long when the soul heads get their needles in “Over and Over.” The secret is out. Dude can sing. This is my jam.

Im soooo happy our generation is reviving this sound of music

[@christopherserratos9401]

This is a year late but, it’s our roaring 20s ☺️

[@huntrrams]

This is type is music you should share to those comments who say “real music doesn’t exist anymore”. This is real music and so happy this sound is coming back with Daptone and other record companies

[@MrAbehimself]

These people are in their 40s

Really want to thank my dad for raising me on oldies at a young age. Glad to see this tradition carry on into my generation and happy that I can pass it on to my kids seamlessly.

[@NaturallyBob36]

Yes

[@michahcc]

So these are your oldies?

[@strictlynorton]

Daptone, Colemine and Big Crown Records are the cats holdin' it down for the real soul sound. Its growing ever stronger. The people had enough of ghetto phoniness and they got hungry for deepness. For realness.

[@Chocolitstrawberries]

strictlynorton agreed!

[@slaz1966]

Nice to see a simple soul band without all the shite and over production that gets attached these days - great record

[@ejacks3]

Amen Brother! Amen!

Don't know Colemine. I will investigate. I believe.

Two steps back and 500 steps forward. The vocalist has an unbelievably strong '60s Philly soul influence but this sounds so fresh!.

[@AR-ml9eo]

I'm from Philly and I endorse that statement!

[@Nikki-cn4xi]

@just steve , what do you mean two steps back. What two things are holding the group back?

[@mykohlestreyah6841]

@@Nikki-cn4xi they mean to say, metaphorically speaking: "two steps back" genre wise for this gen, but by goin back in style they're really quite actually "500 steps ahead" of the game musically speaking

I'd say more of a Sunny Ozuno influence

Ms. Moss is definitely a 'Less is More' kind of drummer. If she'd play any less she wouldn't be playing at all, but everything she does play is absolutely essential for the song. Love it.

👍

[@MrDVNNY]

I’ve always judged a drummer not by how many notes they can play in time but how much time they can put in between notes, and this drummer is a perfect example of that.

[@asther113]

I have been following this band for the better part of a year, their something very unique about them- their style of play harks the days of late 60's or early 70's Chicano style of playing but with a twist, well rounded music bluesy with a tad of lyrics that just melt with the guitar. Well Done A+!
