**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE**

Charlotte, NC, USA – Soulganic, the acclaimed independent Funky Indie Soul band from the vibrant heart of Charlotte, NC, is thrilled to announce the release of their latest single, “Family Ties” on Friday, September 6, 2024. This instrumental track – featuring the renowned jazz and funk trumpeter Stan Odell Graham (The Foreign Exchange, Little Brother, Lute) – is the lead single from the band’s forthcoming album, Phosphene.

“Family Ties” is a testament to Soulganic’s signature sound—an eclectic mix of alternative soul, jazz, and funk. Infused with an intricate groove, playful instrumentation, and a tinge of fiery free jazz, “Family Ties” creates a vibrant musical landscape that encapsulates the essence of Soulganic’s innovative and eclectic flair.

Delving into a realm where funk meets soul, with a twist of jazz and a hint of afrobeat, “Family Ties” showcases Soulganic’s ability to bend genres effortlessly. The track is a testament to the band’s commitment to unquantized, tactile instrumentation, offering listeners a rich, unfiltered sound that is both fresh and familiar.

“We wanted ‘Family Ties’ to capture the essence of our musical journey, and the musical journey of humanity itself, looking back to the dawn of rhythm and self-expression,” says bassist and lead vocalist Anthony Rodriguez. “Our collaboration with Stan brought an incredible energy and authenticity to the track. We feel it’s a perfect introduction to the sound and spirit of Phosphene.”

As the lead single from their upcoming album Phosphene, “Family Ties” gives fans and new listeners alike a taste of what Soulganic has in store. Due in October 2024, Phosphene has Soulganic exploring new territories as a trio while staying true to the band’s groove-centric core. On Phosphene, listeners can expect a rich tapestry of sounds, where each track contributes to a larger, genre-defying narrative.

“Family Ties” will be available September 6, 2024 on all major streaming platforms.
