Soulfinger is a team of two European born producers, that have worked over the lengthy span of eighteen months (good things take time!) with an amazing selection of musicians and engineers, recording the soul music record they always wanted to make.
The idea was to re-record b-sides and lesser known soul music gems from the late 60ties up to mid of 70ties, of great songwriters like Ashford & Simpson and highlight some of their lesser known works.
When hearing what Soulfinger is about to prepare, word of mouth traveled fast in the artist community and a multitude of guest singers all wanted to take part and participate these recording sessions. The list is long, includes platinum recording artists like Kathy Sledge, Truth Hurts or Joi known from Lucy Pearl, Grammy nominated and rumored-to-be First Lady Michelle Obama's favorite artist Anthony David and Grammy nominated Syleena Johnson, Golden Globe nominees Martin Luther and Antonique Smith, from legendary Stax Records' Leela James to urban upcomer and recent signing of urban music dominating force Maybach Music Teedra Moses, all were excited to embark on this wonderful journey.
Result of eighteen months of hard work (good things take time!) Soulfinger is proud to present – The Life, Love & Passion Sessions, Vol.I.
