Hustle Souls, based in Asheville, NC, masterfully blend Retro-Soul, Brass Band Funk, and Singer-Songwriter Americana into a unique and captivating sound. Lauded by American Blues Scene as a "generation-jumping mashup of new school second line funk with old school vintage soul," and described by Bluestown Music as “intimate soul…with a Curtis Mayfield like warmth,” the band has earned a spot as one of Music Connection Magazine’s “Hot 100 Live Unsigned Artists & Bands.”
Overflowing with energy and spontaneity , Hustle Souls features roaring B3 organ and jubilant brass, balanced with three-part vocal harmonies and a passion for songwriting. Their music has been praised by Aldora Britian Records as “worthy of being included in that brilliant soul music canon, a heritage that features some of the greatest performers and writers that have ever graced this earth.”
In 2024, Hustle Souls released their vinyl debut and lead singer Billy Litz was invited to perform at the NAMM Show in Anaheim, CA, as an endorsing artist for the prestigious Santa Cruz Guitar Company. The band also represents Seydel Harmonicas as endorsing artists. Hustle Souls have been featured on major festival lineups such as Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion and Shakori Hills Grassroots Music Festival, and have shared the stage with legends including Kofi Burbridge and supported bands like Dumpstaphunk.
