2014 was an explosive year for The Soul Rebels, riding high from touring four continents including Europe, Australia for the second year, debuting in China, selling out shows in New York City, collaborating with artists spanning from Joey Bada$$, Big Freedia, Lotus and The String Cheese Incident to sharing stages with Kanye West, The Allman Brothers Band, Gary Clark, Jr., John Mayer, Jack White, Dave Mathews and Disclosure. Closing out the year, The Soul Rebels toured with Trombone Shorty and returned home to record the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival's official soundtrack, quoted by the iconic festival as "Soul Rebels, the soundtrack of Jazz Fest 2015."

How do you follow up a year like that? As only The Soul Rebels can, with a jam packed plan for 2015 featuring touring with Umphrey's McGee and Michael Franti, shows with Rakim, Pharoahe Monch, Lettuce, Soulive, Black Thought and Joey Bada$$, collaborations, major festival appearances world-wide, recording a new album produced by Eric Krasno and a co-headlining engagement at New York's iconic Central Park SummerStage.
