It’s been a tremendous year for Thee Sacred Souls, who wrap their Got A Story To Tell ‘24 tour tonight at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, the third night of sold out shows at the venue this week. Highlights of their biggest tour to date include selling out Brooklyn Paramount, the Ryman in Nashville and other historic concert halls across the country, performing at the Fool In Love Festival alongside a host of soul icons, and at Celebrate Brooklyn this summer, drawing nearly 10,000 fans. It was also just announced that they will make their Coachella debut next year. Dates pick up again January 10 in Denver, go here for their full itinerary.
Got A Story To Tell highlights include a co-sign from Beyonce in her GQ cover story, a feature that ran on the front page of the Calendar section of the LA Times, an Amoeba What’s In My Bag appearance, and much more.
Got A Story To Tell, written by Thee Sacred Souls' founding members Alejandro Garcia, Salvador Samano, and Josh Lane, features 12 brand new tracks that further cement the band's status as masters of modern soul. It was recorded at Penrose Recorders in Riverside, CA, with producer Gabriel Roth at the helm, and found inspiration in Brazilian legend Arthur Verocai, the Delfonics, Jamaican rocksteady and Motown siren Mary Wells. Got A Story To Tell singles include "Waiting on the Right Time," “Lucid Girl” and “Live For You.”
The anticipated follow-up to their self-titled 2022 breakout, Got A Story To Tell is a reflection of the band’s journey—marked by relentless touring, newfound fame, and the trials that come with rapid success. In just two years, the band’s “music of terrifyingly high quality” (UNCUT) led to a performance on NPR’s Tiny Desk, several TV show appearances — Jimmy Kimmel Live!, CBS Saturday, Kelly Clarkson, Jools Holland, and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert — six million monthly listeners on Spotify, an ever-growing list of celebrity fans including SZA, Alicia Keys, Leon Bridges, and Kylie Jenner, and festival debuts at Bonnaroo, Newport Folk, Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza.
