YOUNGSVILLE, LA, 2020-Jan-17 — /EPR Network/ — Souled Out Entertainment is pleased to announce and formally introduce their 2020 musician lineup! This year marks the twenty year anniversary of Souled Out and is excited to unveil the musicians that will undoubtedly celebrate this historical milestone for the band.
Vocalist, Jharett Johnson
Jharett hails from Houston, TX and has been performing with Souled Out since September of 2019. “I’ve been a fan of Jharett from the first time seeing him perform – his energy, stage presence is a an extension of his personality. Our fan base has been enamored with him since day one. He’s a young man making the absolute most of his opportunity and I’m excited for him†says Souled Out owner/manager, David Mouton.
Bassist, Ronnie Turner
Ronnie is a native of Gulfport, MS who is no stranger to Souled Out having performed with the group occasionally over the past three years. “Ronnie’s style of playing was a perfect fit for what we were looking for in a bass player. This incarnation of our rhythm section very well may be one of the best I’ve ever played with!â€
Saxophone, Kyle Gambino
Kyle, a Lafayette, LA native, has been performing sporadically with Souled Out since 2018. When the impending departure of longtime saxophonist Ryan Lottinger needing to be addressed, it was a natural progression. “I’ve known Kyle since we were music majors at UL so I knew that his experience, musicianship and love for performing would be a great addition to our horn section.â€
Trumpet, Zach “Fatty†Broussard
Zach (or “Fatty†as he’s affectionately named) returned to the Souled Out stage in the summer of 2019. This Erath, LA native previously performed with Souled Out from 2006-2013. “I am so happy to see Zach’s return “home†and he has such a passion for what we do here in Souled Out. We’re blessed to have him back in the groupâ€
Visual Timekeeper, Jerelmy Carr
Jerelmy is quite an accomplished drummer with an impressive resume hails from Hammond, LA. His experience and talent makes him a sought after asset. “Jerelmy was the piece of the puzzle that we were searching for. We all knew, instinctively, that Jerelmy was our guy.â€
Vocalist, Damon Davis
Damon, hailing from Baton Rouge, LA, found his path to Souled Out paved a few years ago while with another band. “Several years ago, our horn section had done some show dates with Damon’s previous band, Mojeaux. I admired Damon as a very talented vocalist/performer and that impression didn’t go unnoticed…or forgotten. When the idea of possibly adding another vocalist to Souled Out, I reached out to Damon. He’s been captivating audiences ever since and we’re excited for what the future holds.â€
These new additions combined with the other Souled Out mainstays: Lynell Cyprian (lead vocals), Dave Mouton (saxophones), Blake Guidry (keyboards/vocals), Glenn Zeringue (guitar) and Dave Clayton (sound engineer) are excited to celebrate twenty years of Souled Out and lead the way into the next decade!
