about

Soul Scratch is a hard hitting groove machine, built in LA's San Fernando Valley, on a mission to save the world from mediocrity. In short, this is not your mother's soul band. Johnny Chou, Joel Givertz, Adam Greenberg, Matt Reale, Dale Spollett and a host of musicians combine their love of The JB's, Booker T & the MG's, Curtis mayfield and all 1960-70's soul. Utilizing soul solid rhythms, soaring horn lines and silky vocals to creating a uniquely Southern California sound that has become their hallmark. Soul Scratch is rapidly branching out of their LA base on a quest to bring good times, quality get down and their own special brand of soul to every corner of the country.

"The lyrics were written to try and shine a light on how people accept the violence, horror, inhumanity, and greed we see everyday, and to try and remind everyone that this is not always how it was and we can change it together." - Soul Scratch
