Simon and Tod, brothers who missed the grunge era in the 90s, found their musical calling later in life. Simon's introduction to grunge came at 18 when he stumbled upon a VHS tape of Alice in Chains Unplugged in New York, a discovery that deeply resonated with him. Passing the torch to his brother Tod, they forged a bond over their shared love for grunge, sustaining their brotherhood even as the genre faded from the spotlight.
‘Soup are the handsomest, best band we’ve heard.’

After a successful stint in indie country music with his band The Strumbellas, Simon found himself at a crossroads in his 20s. Together with Tod, they jokingly conceived the idea of forming a grunge band, which soon became a reality with the birth of Soup. Joined by family and friends, Soup embarked on a mission to revive the raw energy and honesty of 90s grunge, fueled by their collective passion and determination to bring the genre back into the mainstream.
