Sweet Southern California soul
With their mix of sixties soul and seventies R&B, Thee Sacred Souls have quickly conquered the music scene. In 2022 and 2023, they performed at AB, and this past summer, they delivered a fantastic show at Pukkelpop. And they're ready for more. Their second album, Got A Story To Tell, just dropped and is described as “a captivating, full-bodied celebration of the soul sound, blending traditional influences with new energy” (Pitchfork).
Listen to the stunning album and head to AB on February 25th, as they will be performing for the first time in our main hall.
