Soap

Soap are a four-piece Blues-Rock band based in Cardiff Wales. Jack Monopoli (lead singer and guitarist) and Owain Davies (lead guitar, harmonica and backing vocals) founded the band while at University in Swansea in 2012 with Harry Watkins (bassist) and Oscar Feiven (drummer and vocalist) joining shortly after in 2013.

One year on and Soap had already released 2 E.Ps, their first EP 'Soap' in Feb ’13 and a second 'Marmalade' in May ’13 which helped to establish themselves in the area. On top of this they had played in cities and towns across South Wales and pushed into the UK playing in major cities like Liverpool, Worcester and Oxford.

Soap have gone from strength to strength, building a solid fan bass in Swansea and Cardiff after releasing their third and latest EP ‘Sound Junkie’ in May ’14, which was featured in local and online articles and played across a handful of radio stations.

After graduating from Swansea University, the band moved to Cardiff and make sure to keep on top of shows and promotion, however, it is here we are looking to take our band to the next step.

Tori Reed

Born in New Zealand, raised in Australia, and having done a lot of travel, Tori has difficulty naming one place home. This affinity with being on the road has manifested itself in many songs and undoubtedly, being a wandering spirit, will do in many more.

In December 2013, Tori released her first album "Long Nights, Flightless Birds and Coming Home" in Queenstown and quickly took the tracks to the UK on tour. Stay tuned for the next CD, recorded in the UK, and proposed to come out early 2015.

Most recently, Tori had the fortune of opening for the amazing New Zealand icon, Anika Moa, and in the past, she has performed alongside the likes of blues master Lloyd Spiegel and folk artist Tecoma, plus much more. Through extensive travelling, her experience is wide and crosses many genres and she has had the fortune to entertain and share stories with musicians and audiences from all over the world. From local Antipodean gigs, to far flung performances in Israel. From tiny peña's in Argentina to large stages at charity events in Tasmania.

With her unique style and endearing arrangements, Tori is well suited to intimate crowds and caring environments. Every song is aimed at touching the hearts and minds of those listening. Performing as a solo artist, duo, trio or full band, the options are all there for all types of venues, and various types of crowds.
