Sure Fire Soul Ensemble releasing fourth album Step Down on Friday

The Sure Fire Soul Ensemble's new album Step Down will be out April 1st – no foolin! Check out two classy tracks below. 


Here's the scoop...

The Sure Fire Soul Ensemble are definitely on a roll coming off of their third LP, Build Bridges, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz Chart. The new album from San Diego's 9-piece instrumental juggernaut, Step Down, is a direct reflection of the heavy times they were written and recorded in. The COVID-19 global pandemic, two Presidential impeachment trials, the George Floyd murder and resulting social unrest, a seditious attempt to subvert the democratic process at The Capitol… 

With titles like Step Down, The Other Side, Time To Rebuild, Omnificent, Love Age, and In Common, SFSE uses their music to beautifully paint a picture of societal woes, but also points toward the solution and a better world. Heavy Cinematic Soul, spiritual Jazz-Funk, upbeat Afro-Funk, and deeply introspective rare-groove cuts lace this ten-track transmission vessel. SFSE is deeply defined by the sum of their influences, but always have their eye focused beyond the horizon.
