Not in the soul vein but check out
The Swimmers - Fighting Trees. Kind of a wilco/kinks/shins/beatles
type sound

Stream the whole thing at their website
The Swimmers

I've been listening to a couple of cool bands.

THE MUGS out of NYC have caught my attention. They have a Myspace page and a song called "Broken Signals" that I can't get out of my head. Indie college type rock, but with more mature writing.

There is a band called the PEACHBONES out of Ohio that I also love. Their song "Ghosts" hits me real hard. It's on their website

Great voice and great song.

Finally, I like a band called THE QUAHAUGS out of New Hampsire, my home state. Straight ahead rock for the most part, but their CD shows a lot of influences & styles. I love their song "Full Bloom". Unique voice and guitar sound.
