From Pennsylvania to Florida to California, Rich Sheldon made Los Angeles his home and the place to launch his Rebel Soul Band nationwide.
While attending Florida State University, he started getting into several jam sessions where musicians would meet as strangers and play the music that would bind them.
He then moved to California and started playing solo, but soon joined with others who shared his passion for music, influenced by earthy roots rock and psychedelic jams. In time, he formed the Rebel Soul Band.
The band's sound draws from musical styles that range from folk, blues and funk to reggae, bluegrass and jazz.
In 2002, the band recorded its first album self-titled "Rebel Soul Band." The band records its albums live because the process saves money and enables the band to present its music the way its audience would prefer.
"Whatever comes out, comes out," said Sheldon.
