Bio
'SoulAviv has a timeless, yet contemporary sound', says The Santa Barbara Independent. High energy soul, gospel, and world-music grooves mixed with socially conscious lyrics, spirituality, and celebration equals a performance that grabs the audience from the opening note. 'They filled the room with a joyous sound...Viva SoulAviv!', said Las Vegas Around the Clock.
SoulAviv is a four person vocal group out of Santa Barbara, CA and our music is infused with the sounds of Motown soul, gospel, traditional spirituals, reggae, and the great harmony groups of the '60s and '70s.
