"Ivan Neville, son of Aaron Neville, has been ubiquitous in New Orleans since the early '80s, and leads Dumpstaphunk, a jam-centric funk band. Touch My Soul is only his fifth solo album since 1988, and it's his first in 20 years. Unsurprisingly, much of it represents his deep, lifelong love of New Orleans. His songs crisscross the Crescent City's musical traditions from second line funk and R&B to blues, rock, and jazz. Alongside his live band, he enlists guests from his long career, including his father [and his] uncle Cyril Neville ... The interplay between vocals, polyrhythms, keys, and horns will get everybody onto the dancefloor ... Touch My Soul offers the kind of focused, creative evolution and artistic quality that Ivan Neville's earlier records only hinted at".

"New Orleans standard bearer Ivan Neville keeps the funk alive ... "Greatest Place On Earth" is the record's lead single and pays joyful tribute to the music, people, food, and culture of New Orleans. It's a dance-inducing gem full of second line rhythms, sparkling horns, and crazy good vocals ... It's an outstanding example of one of the most powerful regional sounds to ever come out of the USA and will quickly get you thinking about attending Mardi Gras ... Ivan Neville is an authentic American musical treasure not to be missed when he comes to town and this new album needs to be part of your life".
