RAVE REVIEWS! "... these cats are cutting their own groove, shaking the walls and earning their place among the torchbearers of New Orleans funk." Marc Stone - 90.7 WWOZ & Offbeat
“It’s good to hear a band whose sound hearkens to back in the day but also has a modern touch......makes this band a level higher than most of the other funk bands in New Orleans and across the U.S.” - David Kunian, Offbeat
Drawing upon the funky spirit and foundation of their home of New Orleans, Soul Project NOLA beautifully captures the mix of Funk, Jazz, Blues, Gospel and Groove that the Crescent City continually produces.
The band's founder, singer, guitarist Cristian Duque is the protegee of Walter "Wolfman" Washington having toured with him for many years. The core rhythm section is a tight and funky unit that provides the infectious grooves and precision arrangements for which the band is known. Augmented by some of the top musicians in the city including bassist Wanda Jacobs (a New Orleans native and Grammy winner), Keyboardist Mikey "B3" Burkart, Saxophonist Eric Bernhart, and drummer Wayne Maureau (Marcia Ball), the band has toured coast to coast in the United States and has traveled to Northern Europe to play clubs and festivals.
