Soap (The Band) announces summer tour dates.
From Champaign, IL
Soap is an experimental rock fusion jam band. Soap is a cleansing agent made from the salts of vegetable or animal fats; Money offered as a bribe; Street names for gamma hydroxybutyrate; Soap is like a good feeling; and like a good feeling you can't help sharing it, pass it along.
“Lather” is Soap’s second full length CD release. Offering eleven dynamic songs, it is a truly inspired blend by one of today's most gifted bands. “Lather” is a unique album that values the unknown areas of improvisation as much as the construction of towering compositions. On “Lather,” listeners are treated to lush, polyrhythmic tones that crackle with the brainy togetherness of jazz and the freewheeling attitude of rock. With hints of funk and fusion, Soap’s sound takes on a life of its own. Guitar solos are alternately ferocious and restrained, keyboards break the surface of the music and plunge back into its depths, and the drums and bass provide a constant backdrop of eclectic rhythm.
Soap will promote “Lather” with a 42 date summer tour starting May 25th in Indianapolis, IN at Radio Radio and continuing through the summer with a final show at Silvie’s in Chicago, IL August 26th. The confirmed tour dates are as follows:
