Deep,raw funk.
Stax-style Southern soul.Positively uplifting
& Original Motown-channeling anthems. 

Atlanta’s Ruby Velle and the Soulphonics are the heirs to the thrones of the old-school masters. But they’re much more than just a group of revivalists trying to create a period piece. Powerhouse singer Velle and her band will settle for nothing less than bringing these classic sounds glimmering into the now with
a fresh, new contemporary sheen.

It’s this inviting and accessible bravado that has scored the band critical acclaim from outlets such as The New York Daily News, MTV, Paste and more. And in addition to their critical success, at a time when record sales are at an all- time industry low, the completely independent, DIY-minded Velle and the Soulphonics sold a quarter-million downloads of their single, “My Dear” on iTunes, landing them in the top 30 on Billboard’s Heatseeker charts and at
a stunning #4 on the iTunes R&B charts when their debut album It’s About
Time was released in 2012.

The group has shared bills with megastars and indie press darlings alike, including The Temptations, Lee Fields & The Expressions,  Iggy Pop, Erykah Badu, Goodie Mob, Gary Clark Jr., Animal Collective, Feist, Bush, The Wailers, Dumpstaphunk, Bombino, Peaches, The Internet and Kendrick Lamar.

Get ready for their next studio album, releasing 2025.

SOME HARD TRUTHS (THAT WON’T STOP THIS TRAIN)
Since the pandemic, our little soul band that could has hit a dry patch on the road to better paying gigs in Atlanta and the Southeast. We’ve got some plays to make and shots to shoot, but if y’all are thinking of us for an event or just love what we do and want to support…well, we can promise you that we will bring the house down and your friends would be patting you on the back because of the musical connoisseur you are. We are twenty years strong, had some incredible opportunities to record our best music yet and we’re just getting (re) started.
