About the artist

Sam Cooke and The Soul Stirrers

You know him as the King of Soul, but before Sam Cooke ruled the charts as a solo artist, he was wowing audiences as the lead singer of The Soul Stirrers. This gospel group from Chicago was the breeding ground for Cooke's signature smooth vocals and charismatic stage presence. From their early days in the 1950s, The Soul Stirrers became known for their tight harmonies and innovative musical arrangements. Cooke's powerhouse voice soared above the rest, capturing the hearts of fans around the world. Tracks like "Touch the Hem of His Garment" and "Jesus Gave Me Water" showcased his incredible range and emotional delivery. But it wasn't just Cooke's voice that set him apart – his songwriting skills were equally impressive. He penned hits like "Peace in the Valley" and "Nearer to Thee", cementing his status as a double threat in the music industry. And let's not forget his showmanship – Cooke's electrifying live performances were legendary, captivating audiences with his smooth dance moves and undeniable charm. After leaving The Soul Stirrers in 1957, Cooke went on to achieve even greater success as a solo artist, but his time with the group laid the foundation for his future greatness. The Soul Stirrers may have been just the beginning for Sam Cooke, but their influence on his sound and style can still be heard in his music today. Long live the King of Soul!
