  • Bio

    Drawing upon diverse experiences in 1960's era ska, roots reggae, dub, rocksteady, funk, soul, and jazz, The Soul Captives fuse together a unique musical style that they simply call "the captivating sound". Varying from blazing horn-driven Skatalites style instrumentals to smoking vocal tunes with full three-part harmonies reminiscent of Bob Marley and the Wailers, they have yet to play for a crowd that could stay in their seats!

    What's happenin? I just saw you have more awesome addicting tunes for me to listen to and enjoy. Remember, if you want to come to Victoria & Island, Vancouver, and Seattle, tell me well in advance so I can make arrangements. It's always good to have you all in my presence.

    Love and Respect,
