Soul Fuse Unveils New 9-Piece Lineup at HopMonk Sebastopol
Friday, January 23, 2026 – 8 PM | HopMonk Sebastopol | $20 In Advance| $25 @ The Door

Sonoma County’s Soul/Funk powerhouse Soul Fuse steps into a bold new chapter with the debut of a nine-piece ensemble, live at HopMonk Sebastopol on January 23. Long celebrated for their tight musicianship, horn-driven fire, and signature message of Peace, Love & Soul, Soul Fuse now expands its sound with two high-caliber additions.

Brian Pardo, an accomplished guitarist and composer with credits spanning Jack McDuff, Stan Getz, Bonnie Raitt, Train, and more, brings deep musical pedigree and dynamic stage experience. Joining him is Lynn Ray Pardo, a soulful, expressive vocalist whose tone and emotional delivery add a striking new dimension to the band’s evolving sound.

This expanded lineup strengthens an already seasoned group whose members have performed or recorded with icons such as Loggins & Messina, The Eagles, Gregg Allman, Lydia Pense & Cold Blood, Nick Gravenites, and other major contributors to the West Coast music legacy.

Anchored by the band’s renowned horn section, The Fuser Horns, Soul Fuse blends original Soul/Funk/R&B with modern-edge energy — the kind of music that fills a room, lifts a crowd, and reminds the North Bay why live music matters.

January 23 marks the first opportunity for audiences to experience the enhanced 9-piece Soul Fuse, offering a performance that’s bigger, deeper, and more electrifying than ever.

HopMonk’s 250-cap room is expected to sell out.
Tickets: $20 In Advance| $25 @ The Door
