Soulchess, based in Nashville, Tennessee, breaks away from the city’s traditional music roots, delivering a unique fusion of Funk, Rock, Pop, and EDM. The band’s diverse musical backgrounds contribute to their distinct sound, which thrives on collaboration. Unlike many acts, Soulchess operates as a true band, not as a group of solo artists with session musicians, allowing them to synchronize intricate musical elements that create captivating live performances.

Their shows are a high-energy spectacle, blending musicianship with entertainment. Known for innovative mashups, such as fusing Muse’s “Uprising” with Michael Jackson’s “The Way You Make Me Feel,” Soulchess delivers unexpected yet thrilling combinations that keep audiences on their feet. Each performance is an experience, showcasing not only the band's technical skills but also their ability to engage and move the crowd.

Driven by tight rhythms, strong melodies, and the aggressive beats of EDM, Soulchess aims to bring people together through the universal language of music. Their goal is to create a space where audiences, regardless of background, can unite and share in a powerful emotional experience, whether it's dancing or being moved to tears.

In these divided times, Soulchess represents a call for unity, delivering an uplifting message through their performances: “Much love, one love, all love.”

For cover gigs and event bookings Soulchess can play up to 4 hours of cover music. Hits ranging from 70’s to now. A complete list can be provided upon request.
