NEW RELEASE - Soulé is hitting 2022 with a brand new single, Body. Written as part of Spotify songwring camp in Dublin at , Soulé teamed up with Swedish producer, Moh Denebi from and Irish singer-songwriter Cian Ducrot
Body describes the roller-coaster of emotions we go through before finally accepting the love and embracing that special someone. Oftentimes, due the heartaches we’ve endured in the past, we don’t recognize when true love is in front of us. Self-sabotage kicks in & making us doubt the sincerity of a person’s intentions.
Soulé's new music contrasts her viscerally soulful voice over beds of thumping electronic beats, married with classic 90's influenced RnB harmonies, and unapologetic lyrics about heartbreak and reclaiming confidence in love and life.
