The following description comes from the event organizer.

Soul'd Out presents:
SOULS OF MISCHIEF
(A-Plus, Opio, Phesto, Tajai)
The 30th year of 93 ‘til infinity!
The iconic track and album by Souls Of Mischief.

Touring the funky Hip Hop outfit to mark this very special occasion. With shows full of Jazz-funk melodies, throwbacks and mind-blowing lyricism.

“Q-Tip was bangin’ their records all day” – Phife Dawg, A Tribe Called Quest

Souls Of Mischief played a huge part in the rise of a different kind of Hip Hop. What they did for northern California was so unique to the time, with lyrical skill and dexterity; crazy word plays over Funk and Jazz melodies.. this kind of thing wasn’t associated with the West Coast at the time, and Souls Of Mischief brought a whole new sense of vibrancy and fashion to California. With an underground, summer-time feel to their movement, Souls Of Mischief are spoken of so highly within the Hip Hop realms of De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, The Pharcyde and Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth – they helped infuse Hip Hop with surf and skate culture, smooth, jazz-fuelled good times, introspection and a fitting representation of living life on the streets of the Cali sunshine, or the San Fran bay area.
