SOUL LEGENDS ARE BACK

SOUL II Soul are celebrating their 20th anniversary by releasing a new single – their first in 10 years.

“We’re celebrating 20 years in February,” said founder member Jazzie B. “So we have a record that we’re doing now to celebrate the 20 years and then all of us, the whole crew, are in the studio writing for an album.”

The group recently performed together at the Love Box Festival in East London. Caron Wheeler, who wrote and sang lead vocals on the group’s massive hits (Back II Life and Keep on Movin) made a special guest appearance at the festival. She hadn’t performed on stage with Soul II Soul since their first tour in 1989. Has it really been THAT long????

Other legendary acts performing at the event included Debbie Harry with Blondie and Sly and the Family Stone.

Personally I can’t wait, I LOVE this group, still play their CD non stop.
