TESTIMONIALS
“From the opening bass pulse of “Kite” setting up the gorgeous chords you know you are going on a sweet soulful journey. Drums and guitars reinforce it and the captivating vocal from Zoe Ellis confirms it! And that is a constant throughout the album! Horns join the proceedings on "The Way That We Love” whilst Zoe continues to soar sky high! The mellow groove of “Changes” is a perfect bedrock for the conscious lyrics and Flugel Horn solo. The guests all give beautiful performances throughout and Darryl’s bass takes centre stage on “Fruitvale Gumbo”. "Think About It” takes us all to church in a very funky way! Before you know it Conversation is over and you long for another… Rewind and start again! Nice One Darryl and the gang!” Peace - Bluey Maunick (Incognito)
“This song (Fruitvale Gumbo) has all the ingredients you look for in a total listening experience… great vibe and energy, fantastic musicianship and a killer melody… Bravo to AgapeSoul!!”- Dave Koz
“AgapeSoul is the ultimate in smooth jazz R&B! This band will keep you entertained from start to finish and leave you wanting more!”- Chris Clay Soul Cafe Radio NYC
“AgapeSoul is one of my favourite new bands! Zoe’s vocals are sweet yet powerful without ever feeling forced, she definitely brings the Soul and bridges the classy harmony of the songs with the tight energy of the rhythm section. The band switches gears effortlessly whether it be the gritty funk groove of Conversations, the smooth classic Soul of ‘The Way That We Love’ or even instrumentals like ‘Fruitvale Gumbo.’ The band play for the songs and the songs are great! Definitely a band that will leave you with a smile on your face” - Francis Hylton (bassist for Incognito)
"Conversations' is old-school, groovy, easy... the band and especially the vocal arrangements stand out even among loads of high-profile guest performances. It feels like something from another era. - Michael League (bassist and leader of Snarky Puppy)
"Hey all I can say is AgapeSoul is on the brink of some serious things and I am so truly humbled to be a part of this. I love it." - Eric Gales
“It’s so refreshing to hear music that not only has harmonic substance but inspires through its spiritual truth using God’s language of music! Led by my friend and phenomenal bassist Darryl Anders, if you get the opportunity definitely check out AgapéSoul!” - Nathan East
“It is a great honor to have played a tiny part in AgapeSoul's "Conversations" project. This is a super dope band... super dope album... or CD.... or stream... whatever the case, I really dig this band and it's fearless leader, Darryl Anders. Have a listen on your nice lil' commute some morning... and you are most welcome.” - Tommy Sims
