The Freedom Affair - "Ain't Gonna Cry No More"

The Freedom Affair is a neo-soul group led by three singers: Seyko Groves, Paula Saunders, and Shon Ruffin. Their latest single, "Ain't Gonna Cry No More," is pure vintage sounding soul. It's the kind of song that could have been released any time in the past sixty or so years. The three singers are the focal point of the song, and for good reason. All three are amazing vocalists alone, but when the three harmonize... it's just pure magic. Behind them is a backing band that complements the vocals perfectly. "Ain't Gonna Cry No More" could have been an amazing instrumental track without distracting from the singers at all. 

You can watch the video for "Ain't Gonna Cry No More" below. The Freedom Affair have a new album due out in early 2025. For more on the band, check out their website.
