TROPICAL SOUL takes their fans on a musical journey that sends them south where the palm trees sway and warm ocean breezes blow. This trop rock band's tunes range from covers of acoustic beach and pop music, to island-flavored original songs. Tropical Soul is from Central PA and has been playing their summertime tunes for crowds year-round for almost twelve years. In addition, they frequently travel out of the area to play for their fans from around the Country. Venues played include Margaritaville in Key West, New Orleans and Orlando, Hogs Breath Saloon in Key West, FL, Whitaker Center in Harrisburg, PA, Katmandu in Trenton, NJ, Westy's Irish Pub in Wildwood, NJ and Cabanas in Cape May, NJ.

In November, 2009, they will make their eleventh annual trip to Key West, Florida, to play at the National ParrotHead (Jimmy Buffett Fan Club) Convention, where they have been joined on stage by Tina Gullickson, Peter Mayer, Jim Mayer, TC Mitchell, Doyle Grisham and Heather Perry of J immy Buffett's Coral Reefer Band, and R. Scott Bryan, formerly with the Sheryl Crow Band. In 2002, Jimmy Buffett himself made an appearance and Tropical Soul opened up for him on the big stage in front of Margaritaville on Duval Street and played to 3,500 fans.
