The London Souls
Praised by former Idolator editor-in-chief Maura Johnston as "amazingly tight… swampy rock music that should make any lazy rock radio programmer rethink the word 'grunge'" and credited as "an absolute must-see" by The Tripwire, The London Souls' unique reinterpretation of classic hard-hitting rock and roll formulae recalls elements of the past with an ever-present boundless energy, fit to cement their place in the future.
Tash and Chris have been nothing short of a best-kept-secret among New York City concertgoers since the band's formation in 2008, building a fervent and dynamic fan base leveraged by their ever-substantiated reputation for consistently well-rehearsed and impassioned, explosive live performances. The band's celebrated sound and spirit draws significant influence from the driving force of British rock pioneers Cream and Led Zeppelin, to billowing and bouncing funk and soul, to the layered harmonies and memorable hooks of The Beatles and The Hollies, to the contemporary psychedelia of My Morning Jacket among many more.

Outside Soul
Outside SOUL started out when bassist/vocalist Matt Grady and drummer
Barrett Certoma began jamming out on old school funk grooves together
way back in '09. After a few attempts at trying to get together a
solid group; they met up with saxophonist Devin Rauson and reconnected
with keyboard player; Andrew Orellana. The four young musicians took
their raw, funky sound to anyplace in Raleigh that would allow them
and began to create a small but incredibly diverse following of
different folks from all walks of life that couldn't resist the urge
to move and groove with this new music. Pretty soon the guys in O.S.
had picked up guitarist/vocalist Chris Macon who added a soulful
"layedbackedness" to the unique style cookin' up right here in the
Capital City.
Now the band has a solid repertoire of funky originals that are a hit
everywhere they go and some unique "remixes" of some classic funk/jazz
tunes. They've just recently brought on a new keyboard player, Nate
Myers, who brings his melodic, energetic vibe to the group. Outside
Soul has shared the stage with some of the area's best bands and has
played at just about every type of venue you can possibly imagine. We
look forward to finishing our album and continuing to 'do our thing'
in new cities with new people who love to have a good time. After all,
ain't that what it's all about?
