From their now-classic early singles such as ‘I Might Do Something Wrong’, ‘How’s Your Life’, ’Fall In Love’ to their highly-lauded albums ‘Introducing’ and ‘Did You Miss Me’, Tortured Soul’s style is both an echo of the past and a challenge to the future, combining elements of old soul and funk with a modern dancefloor sensibility.

In 2010 JKriv departed the band to pursue his own musical adventures and was replaced by Jordan Scannella on bass. Since then the guys have been busy working on some new material, icluding the flirtatious single ‘Dirty’.
