South Soul Music is a locally owned music business that specializes in music lessons and recording/tracking for Chattanooga artists.

Jenn Bostic started on her path as a singer/songwriter when she was 10 years old, in the back seat of her father’s car with her older brother on the way to school. A horrible crash that killed her dad, a musician who taught her folk songs like ‘Sunny Side of the Street’ and turned her on to Emmylou Harris and Bonnie Raitt, changed her life forever.


Jealous’ first single, ‘Jealous of the Angels’, produced by Barrett Yeretsian (Christina Perri, Andy Grammer), is a loving tribute to her father. It made a huge splash for Bostic in the U.K., with radio and critical success and more than 50,000 sold – all as an independent release. The video for ‘Jealous of the Angels’ has had more than 1.6 million YouTube views, and the single was championed by Smooth Radio and Radio 2. Bostic’s national TV appearances have included the coveted BBC Breakfast, which sent ‘Jealous of the Angels’ to #1 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart.


Bostic won five 2012 Independent Country Music Association Awards, including Overall Winner, Best Female Artist, Best Musician, Best Songwriter and Song of the Year for ‘Jealous of the Angels.’  Jealous made its US album debut at #22 on the iTunes Singer-Songwriter Album chart in June, the same week Bostic made her third appearance at the Grand Ole Opry. 

I love sharing music that moves the soul, my name is Mitch! ASPIRE TO INSPIRE NOT EXPIRE. mynextfocus is a blog focused on the minimalist mindset, zero waste, and a more intentional promotion of the intangible things you value most. Let's Take a dive deeper shall we! ((=^_^=))

Playing guitar at the age of Six, I knew it was going to be a life of music. It wasn't until the age of fifteen when I joined my first band called Southern Wind. This was the starting point of a wonderful new music adventure for for myself and the fellow band members. Playing in local clubs and private parties, Southern Wind continued to play small town music for good time country folk and bring country music to the top of the food chain in this small town. Shows were booked at Gw's, Kelly's, Wild West, Joyland, etc. Playing lead guitar and sharing the mic with the other singers in the group, I continued to use this time to write a few songs and learn the basics of the music industry.

After the band Southern Wind broke up, like most young bands do, it was time to branched off forming a new band called High Noon. All the musicians were extremely gifted. My assignment; lead singer and rhythm guitar player for this hot new band of the 90's. I couldn't play guitar to save my life. Five long years together playing in clubs all around the state of Florida, sometimes playing five nights a week! Because of the awesome friends around us and the high energy that was pure magic! High Noon was wanted in every bar that had country music mainly because Rhob our Bass player kicked ass when it came to booking shows! He was the mastermind behind the operation.

After leaving Punta Gorda, Lakeland was next on the radar, first stop; look for a new band in the big city. Lakeland is a small town but when you compare the two, Lakeland has a few more red lights. Here is where the full time job at the local motorcycle shop while trying to learn a new instrument, (Keyboards) comes in. Working 8 hrs a day and then another 8 hrs of practice, learning this new instrument went on for over a year. After getting the hang of it I was soon playing keyboards in a band called Fletcher Cane.
