RECENT PRESS:"..intimate soul... with a Curtis Mayfield-like warmth."Bluestown Music
"They are... 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... take a nostalgic trip back to those classic brass-infused sounds. They love New Orleans, they dream of Muscle Shoals and they have a soft spot for the mystical powers of Dr John. You would be doing yourself an injustice if you don’t pick up a copy of ..Daydream Motel EP." - AB Records issue 46 "A nice slice of Americana that you don't run across enough unless you spend a lot of time at Nawlins funerals, this crew colors outside the lines adding fun and funk to the proceedings and crafting their own party on the outskirts of town. Powered by chops that know the terrain, this is a fun time for left leaners." - Midwest Record "generation-jumping mashup of new school second line funk with old school vintage soul." - American Blues Scene "Hot 100 Live Unsigned Artists and Bands of 2020" - Music Connection Magazine 2020 International Songwriting Competition Semi-Finalist "Their blend of jazz, pop, and rock is inventive and captivating. Their lines are on point and their sound is tight, creating space for Billy Litz's rabbit hole musicianship. And you can f***ing dance to it. Friday night was a revelation, I'm already looking forward to the next one.” - Caleb Calhoun "It’s hard not to start bobbing your head to a collection of tunes that sounds like it could’ve come from Willie Mitchell’s Hi Records recordings in the early 1970s in between Mitchell’s Al Green productions." - Greenville Journal (read full article) "smooth and funky, keys driven, body shaking sound that lifts your soul and moves your feet. " - Two3Four Entertainment "Winter is coming, but thanks to Hustle Souls it still feels like summer." Mountain Xpress “They’ll take you there....

The musicians play with unbridled energy and produce a catchy sound that feels vintage." - Acoustic Asheville (read full article) "I have a good feeling about what they will bring to our music community...their energy taking my soul for one hell of a ride...The harmonizing in here is so touching, gracing me with the most beauty I have felt in a long time.......They have the courage to put their stories, emotions, and souls out there, and that is inspiration for us all..... " -Hustle and Heart (read full article) "..have settled into a funky-soul groove harkening back to sounds of the 60s and 70s. With the help of producer and engineer Eric Sarafin (The Pharcyde, Ben Harper, Barenaked Ladies, and Foreigner) the band captured a vintage sound on the album -- so much so that you might have to blow the dust off before you play it."

Mountain Xpress (read full article) "With a style that started out tilting towards Americana but has picked up heavy doses of funk and soul, Hustle Souls can take their listener to some very dark, and some very bright places.
