Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings Brought Holiday Soul to ‘The Late Show’ with “Silent Night” & “8 Days of Hanukkah”

Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings released a Christmas album called It’s a Holiday Soul Party a few weeks ago, and if the very prospect doesn’t warm your heart, get the behind me, Ebeneezer Scrooge. Sharon and the boys took their Holiday Soul Party to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night and ripped through a smooth, funky “8 Days of Hanukkah” and a bluesy “Silent Night.” If you look closely, the boys are all wearing adorable Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings Christmas sweaters. Watch both performances below and revisit our candid talk with Sharon about her recent illness here. It’s great to see her up and about and having a blast.
