The Blue Souls
“Blues, soul and jazz music is filled with pain and longing as well as passion and raw emotion. For many people this music is as familiar to the heart as the voice of a lover and as soothing to the soul as their gentle embrace”
The Blue Souls are a six piece band from Melbourne, united by a shared love of blues, soul, and '60s R&B. Known for their dynamic performances and rich, vintage sound, The Blue Souls blend classic grooves with fresh originality. Formed in 2005 by harmonica player and songwriter Ben Campbell, the band took shape when he persuaded longtime friend and powerhouse vocalist/keyboardist Kate Wilde to come on board. Kate’s vocal range effortlessly spans the emotional depth of soul, the grit of blues, and the energy of R&B.
Her jazz infused piano licks and signature Hammond organ tones are key to the band’s distinctive sound. At the heart of The Blue Souls is a strong songwriting partnership between Ben and guitarist
Jeff Evans, whose collaboration has produced a growing repertoire of original songs that stand confidently alongside genre classics.
