Soap in Connect Savannah

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.

A Tribute to the Founder of Soap

Mr. Matthew Dabuary Adams, the founder of Soap

Mr. Matthew Dabuary Adams founded the band, Soap, at his apartment on Habersham Street in Savannah, Georgia in 2004. A highly creative and brilliant individual, Matthew formed the band to help him work out his new drum kit and possibly realize his rock star ambitions.

Matthew left the band in 2006 to pursue a PHD in history at universities in Poland and Denmark. A doctor of history now, Matthew lives in the Ukraine with his lovely new wife, Inna, and his even newer twin boy and girl. How about that?

We salute you, Dabuary! Thank you bringing Soap into the world.
