 Alpenphunk is where world-class music meets Crested Butte’s vibrant mountain culture, creating an unforgettable weekend of sound, skiing and once-in-a-lifetime collaborations. Lee Fields, born April 26, 1950, is an American soul singer often called “Little JB” for his vocal and physical resemblance to James Brown. Fields began his career in 1969, releasing his first single and working with notable acts like Kool and the Gang, B.B. King, Clarence Carter, and Sharon Jones. In the 1990s, he made a strong return to music after a brief hiatus, signing with Desco Records and later recording for Daptone and Soul Fire. His collaborations with Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings solidified his place in the soul revival movement. Fields has since worked with his band, The Expressions, releasing critically acclaimed albums such as Faithful Man (2012), Special Night (2017), and It Rains Love (2019). His timeless music has reached new audiences through collaborations with hip-hop artists like J. Cole and Travis Scott, who sampled his track “All I Need.” Fields’ music has also appeared in popular films and TV shows, including Soul Men, Magic Mike XXL, and the series Atlanta.
