Soap (The Band) To Release New CD - Lather

Richmond, VA - Digitone Records announces today the release of Soap’s new CD “Lather” which will be in stores March 21st. Gary Gaskin A&R for Soap made the announcement.

“Lather” is Soap’s second full length CD release. Offering eleven dynamic songs, it is a truly inspired blend by one of today's most gifted bands. “Lather” is a unique album that values the unknown areas of improvisation as much as the construction of towering compositions. On “Lather,” listeners are treated to lush, polyrhythmic tones that crackle with the brainy togetherness of jazz and the freewheeling attitude of rock. With hints of funk and fusion, Soap’s sound takes on a life of its own. Guitar solos are alternately ferocious and restrained, keyboards break the surface of the music and plunge back into its depths, and the drums and bass provide a constant backdrop of eclectic rhythm.

The CD was recorded at Apocalypse Cow, in Montgomery, IL, and mixed and mastered by Bill McElroy at Slipped Disc in Ashland, VA. Three singles “Out of Luck”, “Penguin”, and “Miles Dankis” from “Lather” will be released nationally for radio airplay March 24, 2006.

Soap will promote “Lather” with a 42 date summer tour starting May 26th and continuing through the summer with a final show at Tompkins Square Park in New York City August 20th.
