Today, Just American News proudly features the latest album by Soulcare, a masterful showcase of artistry and collaboration. Featuring a stellar lineup of musicians, the album titled Into the Soul of Paul & John brings together diverse talents, crafting a multi-genre masterpiece across its 10 tracks. When multiple musicians unite, their distinct styles and creative energies converge, resulting in music that transcends individual brilliance to deliver something truly phenomenal. This album is a testament to that synergy.
It begins with Ebony and Ivory featuring Richard Bona, a stunning retouch of the timeless classic by Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder. The intricate lyricism and arrangement evoke a nostalgic warmth, reminding listeners of an era when unity and love seemed more prevalent. Soulcare and Richard Bona breathe new life into this beloved track, weaving modern textures and their unique essence to create a rendition filled with heartfelt emotion and brilliance. The subtle vocal harmonies craft an atmosphere that is both mesmerizing and deeply moving.
Imagine is another standout, a reinterpretation of a legendary tale by John Lennon. Soulcare’s subdued arrangement, paired with delicate guitar tones and understated vocals, delivers an emotional depth that resonates profoundly. The track’s minimalist approach makes every note and nuance stand out, ensuring listeners are drawn into its introspective charm.
The Fool on the Hill reimagines a classic Beatles-inspired piece originally influenced by Indian Spiritual Teacher Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Soulcare’s vibrant introduction and inventive restructuring transform the song into a luminous masterpiece. The modern arrangement feels like a beam of moonlight, casting a new perspective on a beloved track. Meanwhile, Yesterday (our favorite!) is the album’s crowning achievement. Soulcare’s raw, emotive vocals, complemented by a restrained guitar arrangement and an exquisite piano-guitar fusion in the middle section, create a soundscape of euphoria. This track alone demands to be played on repeat.
Blackbird opens with a scintillating piano section, setting the stage for a creative journey in tonality and arrangement. The falsetto passages and harmonica layers transport listeners to an unconventional, almost otherworldly realm of sound, offering a transformative listening experience.
The album concludes with My Valentine, a sublime culmination of Soulcare’s overarching message. It isn’t a message to be deciphered by the mind but rather one to be felt at the core of one’s being. The track bypasses logic, connecting directly to the listener’s soul, evoking unity and peace in ways words alone cannot express.
In this album, Soulcare has beautifully demonstrated how collaboration with other artists elevates creativity to uncharted heights. The blending of talents creates a rich tapestry of sounds and emotions, offering a listening experience that is as dynamic as it is profound.
Whether you’re starting your day, commuting through bustling streets, or winding down with a quiet moment of reflection, this album will be your steadfast companion, nurturing the heart and soul.

Listening to Soulcare’s music is diving into a delicious and velvety tranquility, a welcome respite from the light and cracks of the world. Initiated by Yann Gaslain, an entrepreneur in women’s health, the Soulcare musical project is an opening to others and the world. A delicate blend of original compositions, like Les Amants de Buenos Aires, and tributes to musical greats, from Frank Sinatra to the Beatles. Their silky songs merge all genres: Latin music with tango jazz, French pop with soul and funk.

The lineup includes the renowned music producer Rodrigo G Pahlen on piano and harmonica, Martin Laportilla on bass, Guillermo Calliero on trumpet, Nico Correa on drums, and Octavio Hernandez on guitar. Most of them are Argentine and Uruguayan, and the group instantly found creative inspiration. Soulcare is a unique combination of soul, afrobeat, and a French voice. “I let myself be guided by the wonderful fragrance of the garden in your eyes,” sings Yann Gaslain on the group’s debut album, released in 2022. And it works: more than 17,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, thousands of views on YouTube, and an audience that always shows up at their concerts. With their first tour in Argentina, Soulcare Meets Buenos Aires, the group performed in iconic venues like the Thelonious Jazz Club.
