21 Soul
21Soul. The soul of the 21st century. Born in the creative mix of the Ropeadope community of independent artists, 21 Soul is a new media initiative that will feature a variety of programs that center around music and the people who create it. The goal is simple – to connect people directly with musicians and their work. The medium is high quality audio and innovative video. The style is casual and honest. All shows are recorded at The Ropeadope Room, an intimate studio in an old train station near Philadelphia, PA.
