Souled American

Souled American is an American alternative country band from Chicago that was active mostly in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The band started in 1986 with a quartet of musicians from Illinois. The initial lineup consisted of rhythm guitar/singer Chris Grigoroff, bassist/singer Joe Adducci, lead guitarist Scott Tuma, and drummer Jamey Barnard. The band made six records between 1988 and 1995; Barnard left the group during the making of the fourth record Sonny, while Tuma departed during the making of the sixth record, Notes Campfire. Since then, Souled American has survived as a duo featuring the original songwriters Adducci and Grigoroff, aided and accompanied by a variety of other musicians.
