Tender Loving Empire is happy to announce that the the forthcoming Ural Thomas and the Pain LP The Right Time (out 9.28) and the video for album standout "No Distance (Between You and Me)" have both premiered at VIBE. A tour in support of the record begins at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR on September 29th.

"It's been 50 years since Ural Thomas was opening for Otis Redding and the Rolling Stones - he hasn't lost an ounce of that fire." - Afropunk

While Thomas released a few singles in the late 60's, played myriad show at the Apollo Theater, and performed alongside James Brown and Stevie Wonder, The Right Time is, in many respects, his debut full length. A developing artist at nearly eighty years old, for Thomas music has always been about bringing people together. "If we make someone smile we're satisfied" says Thomas. "It's all love and brotherhood. If folks listen to my record and feel that I'll feel very blessed."

"Ural Thomas & The Pain deliver plenty of old school soul, spreading the love to a new generation of fans." - Black Grooves
