What happens when you take Funk and Hip-Hop and knead it into a dough, slather it with Reggae, dust it with the Blues, sprinkle it with Jazz and pepper it with Rock? Some people might dub it a mess, but Central Florida calls it Semi-Soul.
Born in the ashes of tired rock bands, Semi-Soul is a phoenix with a line-up that is nine strong.
Founded by Drummer Phillip Cannoy, Bassist Shayne Campbell and Guitarist Charlie Wells, Semi-Soul adds sugar and spice with vocalist Erica Ayala, the hip to the hop, the ground shaking percussion of Eneix Frankenburger and the flavorful accents of lead guitarist Neil Wicker.
Last, but certainly not least is the smooth sound of TJ Alcock on Baritone and the bombastic blast of Walt Cannoy's trumpet, that together add the distinctive flare of authentic funk.
Only two years old, Semi-Soul has performed at a number of venues throughout Central Florida including, The Social and Hard Rock Live in Orlando.
Semi-Soul has but one goal, to put the FUN in FUNK and to keep that booty shakin'.

Music with that New Orleans feel
The Gumbo Kings of Jazz and Blues.
The Professors of that Gulf Coast Rhythm & Groove.
Whispering Smooth Ballads from the Greats.
Steaming Swing of the Big Band Era.
From the most CLASSIC to the most MODERN Jazz, Jitterbug, Mambo, Swing, Latin, Reggae/Ska, and more…
Three, Four, Five, Six Musicians, or a Big Band it’s up to you.
Comprised of some of the best and most versatile players around, trumpeter/vocalist Bill Averbach brings it home with vintage jazz, blues, swing and jumpin’ jive from the 20’s to the most contemporary. Influenced heavily by artists such as Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, Louis Jordan and Louis Prima the band plays that jumpin’ jive so reminiscent of zoot suits and two-tone shoes. And when they play that New Orleans sound you can almost taste the creole and gumbo at Mardi Gras.
