Soap Rocks Greenbriar’s 60th Anniversary Gala

By rigel | November 23, 2009
Expectations had never been higher for a Soap gig. Our audience had paid $125/plate to attend this gala. Were we nervous? You bet. Did we deliver? Most Def. But just to be sure we’d see folks on the dance floor, we learned four new crowd-pleasing tunes by Smokey Robinson, Prince, Sam Cooke and Bobby Brown.The members of Soap, after setting up for the Greenbriar 60th Anniversary Gala

The Members of Soap
……………………………………………….

Do you have a wedding, a bar mitzvah, an annual general meeting with the head office from Cincinnati . . . a toga party? No matter what kind of party you have, Soap can rock it.

With 2009 already underway, the boys of Soap have been busily adding 20 carefully-chosen dance tunes for the new year. <0x2028> We’ve just added two by old-school New Orleans funk band, The Meters; A-Punk by Vampire Weekend; and Stevie Wonder’s Superstition.

Hey out there, has Soap rocked your party? Let us know.

New Videos

The Barrow/Burkow Show

By rigel | August 7, 2008

The Barrow/Berkow Show

Tuesday, August 5th, Soap was invited to play Kavanaugh Square in Ardsley Park, Savannah, to lend its good vibrations to Ardsley’s National Neighborhood Night Out.

We were surprised to be joined by Congressman John Barrow – who rode a bicycle to the event – and the Savannah Police Chief, Michael Berkow. This was their first-ever Soap show, if you can believe that.

If you’re like me, then you probably didn’t know that National Neighborhood Night Out is a crime prevention initiative with the following objectives:

* Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
* Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime programs;
* Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and
* Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

Pusherman was definitely out of the question for this gig!

Soap in Connect Savannah

By rigel | July 23, 2008

Jim Reed, Music Editor for Connect Savannah, wrote a brief and perspicacious story about Soap in last week’s Noteworthy section:

Soap, The BandOperating quite under the radar for a few years now, this quirky, funky, indie-rock band (featuring Rigel Crockett, Antar Ellis, Joachim Kelly, Eric Curl and Louis Clausi) has become something of a familiar sight at house parties, public events in the Starland District and charity functions.

Having recently added a veteran lead guitarist (Jake Brown), they’re now stepping out and testing the waters of the club scene. This gig may prove their highest-profile booking to date. Their sets are roughly equal parts angular, exuberant originals and a grab-bag of recognizable —if seemingly unrelated— covers by artists like Lou Reed, Talking Heads, Al Green, Donovan, Ween and Michael Jackson. Listen & Learn: thisissoap.com. Fri., 11 pm, Locos (downtown) – 21+ only.
