Collective Soul ‘Blood’ Work BY PETER LINDBLAD More than a quarter century after taking the rock world by storm with their 1993 multi-platinum debut record Hints, Allegations and Things Left Unsaid, Collective Soul’s Blood is still pumping. While the band’s new album contains all the signature elements that lifted hits like “Shine,” “Breathe,” “December,” “The World I Know,” “Gel” and “Heavy” to great heights, the record finds Collective Soul at a crossroads in its history, looking forward as the quintet remains deeply rooted in the kind of heavy, melodic rock that’s floored fans for years. Sacrificing none of the power and glory of their earlier work, Collective Soul is embracing stylistic diversity, throwing everything they’ve been exposed to into the kitchen sink. Songs featuring piano and strings – utilized to great effect on some of their most revered hits – are also full of muscular guitar riffs, as the chemistry and camaraderie of vocalist/guitarist E Roland, rhythm guitarist Dean Roland, lead guitarist/backing vocalist Jesse Triplett, bassist/background vocalist Will Turpin and drummer/backing vocalist Johnny Rabb seems more vital than ever. The band is currently touring with the Gin Blossoms, and they made an appearance at Summerfest in June. Now based in Atlanta, although originally from Stockbridge, Georgia, Collective Soul will be appearing at the Greenville Lions Park in Greenville on July 13 with Three Doors Down and Loverboy as part of the Catfish Races community celebration. Rabb, who joined the band in 2012, took time out to talk about his history with Collective Soul, the new album and the group’s 25th anniversary. Out and About WI JULY 2019 5 COLLECTIVE SOUL O&A: How does it feel to be part things we’re continuing, plus of 25th anniversary? the other lots of songs in JOHNNY RABB: Well, the catalog that are hits that yeah, we definitely thrive on people have come to love and getting out and recording they hear, but the tightness and touring, getting out in of the band is exciting.

It much, and looking forward to seems like a springboard to the it. And every night’s different, future while looking back at and every night’s good … Gin what has always made you guys Blossoms are awesome. Those great. Do you get that sense, too? guys have been longtime JR: I do. I love the fact that friends of the band, and the even being a fan of the guys longevity of the band I think when I was doing my own is exciting and important for thing in Nashville, when continued growth. So, we’re they were getting their start, having a blast. when they first came out, I was like, “Man, who is this O&A: What are shows like band? This is a different compared to when you first and awesome sound.” And joined the band? I feel it still has that unique JR: The first tour I did with and very specific sound, the guys was the Dosage Tour. from E’s voice all the way We played the album from down to the riffs and how front to back, and then took the band is. So, to be a a break and came back and part of that is exciting and did more, hits included from that springboard (idea) the band’s catalog.
