     The deep house crew brings you once again a high quality release of
     soulful dance music.. music with emotion that deserves the promotion..

     Tortured Soul is music that will move you. It's a new concept in the
     world of house music: it's live. The instrumentation is simple and
     organic :¡ Drums, electric bass, vintage keys, and soulful vocals.
     Tortured Soul filters club sounds like Afro Beat and Samba through a
     lens of jazzy House and American Soul to reflect intense grooves
     evocative of Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, the New Deal, and Fela Kuti.

     Their first full-length album just released on PURPOSE RECORDS,
     showcases their live tracks, as well as, studio productions and re-
     mixes, also coincides with an aggressive touring schedule covering
     the US, Canada, and Europe. Tortured Soul is also featured on DJ
     Spinna's newest album, Here to There, with a funky remake of his
     classic track, "Rock."

     Tortured Soul was conceived in May 2001 by drummer, singer, and
     songwriter Christian Urich - known in world of house and R&B as
     founder and leader of the band Cooly's Hot Box. The single "We Don't
     Have To Be Alone" introduced Cooly's Hot Box to the house music
     world, and their acid jazz classic "Don't Throw My Love Around" on
     Polygram's London/Payday Records is featured on the first Giant Steps
     compilation and as the hook for Armond Van Heldon's "Funk
     Phenomenon." Urich has worked with such producers as Reggie Lucas
     (Madonna, Stephanie Mills), DJ Spinna, and Roger Sanchez (on his
     album First Contact.)

     The first Tortured Soul single for Central Park Recordings was the
     now-classic house track "I Might Do Something Wrong" re-mixed by
     Osunlade. The track was an immediate success, playing weekly at New
     York's legendary party Body & Soul and altering the sound of Central
     Park Recordings. Inspired by Tortured Soul the label turned in a new
     direction, and focused on the fusion of soul with deep house music.

     Tortured Soul's next two singles involved Alistair Colling and DJ
     Spinna. For these tracks, Urich incorporated keyboardist Ethan White
     and bassist Jason Kriveloff. White's style is rhythmic and soulful,
     blending his background in jazz with Brazilian pop, African rhythms,
     and 70's R&B. He leads his own piano trio and frequently lends his
     sound as a sideman. Conservatory-trained bassist Kriveloff fuses the
     styles of James Jamerson, Bootsy Collins, and Paul Chambers to give
     Tortured Soul its tight and jazzy bottom end. His Central Park
     Recordings house project, "The Moves," highlights his writing,
     singing, and programming skills and debuted at the 2003 Winter Music
     Conference with "If You Leave Now."

     The trio had previously recorded the album The Zone with Velour
     Records' artist, Topaz. They toured for two years with Topaz sharing
     stages with legends James Brown, Maceo Parker, John Scofield,
     Soulive, Widespread Panic, and many others. Their first recording as
     Tortured Soul, "How's Your Life," captures their intuitive musical
     rapport and presents a smooth soul-house sound with haunting vocals.
     The project has evolved into a collaboration with three times its
     original force for pioneering a new genre: live house.

     With the new album ready to hit, the band is transferring their
     energy to the stageïdropping heavy beats and thick bass for the body
     and soul. The show is powerful. The sound is infectious. The music
     moves.
