Souled American formed in 1987 with four musicians from Illinois - vocalist/ rhythm guitarist Chris Grigoroff, vocalist/bassist Joe Adducci, electric guitarist Scott Tuma, and drummer Jamey Barnard. They were scouted and signed by popular independent label Rough Trade Records. Their 1988 debut Fe and Lucinda Williams' eponymous album became the label's initial US releases. The band made a total of four records for Rough Trade before the label went bankrupt and the music vanished. They then made two records for Germany's small Moll Tontrager which, scarcely distributed and poorly promoted, were (as Abraham Lincoln would say) little noted nor long remembered. 'Rise Above It: A Souled American Anthology' collects 20 tracks - a third of the band's recorded output between 1988-1996 - newly remastered from their first six releases to tell the Souled American story (up to this point).
