Opensouls
Opensouls were a New Zealand band formed in 2001. After releasing numerous vinyl EPs, the band released their critically acclaimed debut album "Kaleidoscope" which impressed reviewers and fans alike. While this album draws inspiration from soul, reggae, jazz & blues styles, their next album, "Standing in the Rain", was made with the intent to reflect the sound and feeling of a particular musical era: late 1950s and early 1960s British and American R&B. The band split up in 2011, playing their final live shows.
