Black Pumas' "I'm Ready" came out in June 2019, and the partnership behind it is plain in the credits: Eric Burton and Adrian Quesada wrote it together and both play guitar on it, with Burton taking the vocal. Quesada ran the rest of the board himself, producing, recording and mixing the track.
Around them, Scott Davis plays bass, John Speice drums and Trevor Nealon keyboards, with Angela Miller on tambourine and Jenavieve Varga adding violin, a full room of players for a song built on the Burton and Quesada pairing.
