Soul radio stations

342 stations, live.

Soul music took shape in African American communities in the United States, rooted in rhythm and blues and gospel, and it is known for emotional, powerful vocals and a deep groove. Soul stations play classics associated with Motown, Stax and the Philadelphia sound, as well as Northern soul, funk-flavored tracks and more recent neo-soul. Horn sections, tight rhythm sections, expressive singing and songs about love and life define the style. Many soul stations favor a warm, vintage sound, but plenty also highlight contemporary singers who carry the tradition forward, so the programming often bridges several generations.
