Sharief is a 21st century soul man par excellence. He’s a man that knows of what he wants, and of what he speaks. You can tell where he's coming from in a heartbeat anytime you catch him in support mode on gigs for artists as diverse as Chocolate Genius and Vivian Green to Rufus Wainwright, holding it down with his guitar-slinging, bass-thumping, vocalizing, and harmonizing.••••The B-Side Podcast is produced by Charlie Hoxie, Kecia Cole, Ro Johnson and Sachar Mathias; recorded by Onel Mulet; and edited by Khyriel Palmer and Emily Boghossian.
