Jazz-funk duo Soule Monde will release their first EP, Smashed World, this September 11 on Ropeadope Records. Powered by drummer Russ Lawton and B3 extraordinaire Ray Paczkowski (both of Trey Anastasio Band) the new EP is sure to be filled with deep, thick compositions that just ooze funk. 

Stream Soule Monde ft. Trey Anastasio at Iridium In NYC 5/1/14

The EP was recorded between Lovetown Studio and Noteworthy Studio, and engineered by Bennett Shapiro and Roger Strauss. Smashed World will feature a total of five tracks, including two tracks that will make an appearance on Soule Monde’s 2016 LP, two live tracks, featuring a cover of ZZ Top’s “La Grange,” and an appearance from Twiddle’s Mihali Savoulidis on guitar for “Allah Uya.”
