Soul Quench

With Lizzie —

Soul music is traditionally a secular form of gospel, a major Black musical genre in the 1960’s and 70’s that became politically significant during the Civil Rights Movement.

Soul Quench plays anything from: Old School Soul; R&B; Funk; Chicano Soul; Gospel; Acid Jazz …to anything that fits the brief of: soulful vocals; soulful lyrics, soulful beat … anything that makes you want to dance, cry or fall in love again.

I keep mind the word sonder — the profound feeling of realizing that everyone, strangers passing the street, have a life as complex as one’s own, despite our lack of awareness of it. Everyone’s going through his or her own stuff!

Anyhow one man’s soul is another man’s schmaltz. Over the two-hour show I hope you hear something that hits the sweet spot!
