Soul Asylum began playing together in 1998. The group used to sell their tapes out of their van in the school parking lot. Soul Asylum began singing at the college dive bar Cafeteria. The guitarist was influenced by his uncle's love of music.

Soul Asylum were sure they were not going to be a one hit wonder after their single became popular. The group group played festivals, parties, bars, really just about anywhere that would take them.

Soul Asylum realized that they had a real chance to become a headlining national act when Deborah Krishnamurthy started the first fan club for the band in 1992. While the club started out small after the organizer heard the group play at a small club in Albany, the club grew leaps and bounds after the group’s first national tour.

Members of Soul Asylum are expecting to bring in a whole new group of fans with this tour and the new album. The band is in the midst of the accompanying tour for their most current release. The new record from Soul Asylum has been heavily influenced by artists of the '70s.

Often times critics will praise Soul Asylum for their ability to rile up the audience when they perform live. Dallas music critic Whitney Kostner has always been impressed with group’s superb bassist. Soul Asylum’s latest album has received positive reviews from notable music critics like Sam Molitor and Billy Casas.

Soul Asylum respects the fact that their fans love their past records, so they go to great effort to incorporate the older hits with the newest ones. The group’s latest tour information, from Soul Asylum tickets to concert schedule changes to seating charts, are all available on TheSeats.com.
