Artist description Soul Element takes its listeners into the excruciatingly blissful realm of sound. This Washington, DC native band combines the influence of its home town's rock-hard, airtight Go-Go groove, with the precision timing and inexplicable space of 70's funk and disco, iced with a smooth layer of acid-jazz, and soaked in soul.Altogether, this tight-pocket-groove-monster's stage presence consists of the collective experience of eleven musical innovators with backgrounds ranging from the roots of the brimstone and fire of the gospel church to the smoke filled lounges of the underground jazz scene. The mechanism known as Soul element has proven time and time again, its ability to make any crowd cry, shout, and most important of all, let loose and dance.
