The Soul Reality Collective

About Me

From it's humble beginnings jamming in the Brighton underground scene, SOUL REALITY are a collective who, thanks to the artists involved, can rightly claim to be at the heart of the progressive/psychedelic soul movement.The musicians involved can boast, between them, recording and songwriting deals with Atlantic, EMI and other major labels, appearances at Wembley, Glastonbury, Reading and other major festivals, a number of major US -and indeed worldwide- tours, countless 'Top of The Pops' appearances plus a formidable range of other (international) TV, session and stage work. Safe to say, these guys can play! But, it's less about the credits, and more about the music. The spirit of Soul Reality is 'never play the same thing twice' and our aim is to make every gig 'an event', different from the one before.
