Soul music was born out of a fusion between African American gospel singing in the USA in the 1950s. In an era where hope resilience and faith where much needed – it was Soul music that provided refugee for many people connecting their spirit to their soul. Today that music still exists and is as timeless as ever.

“Music does a lot of things for a lot of people. It's transporting, for sure. It can take you right back, years back, to the very moment certain things happened in your life. It's uplifting, it's encouraging, it's strengthening” Aretha Franklin
