Soul Coughing

Soul Coughing was an American alternative rock band composed of vocalist/guitarist Mike Doughty (also known as M. Doughty), keyboardist/sampler Mark Degli Antoni, bassist Sebastian Steinberg, and drummer Yuval Gabay. Soul Coughing developed a devout fanbase and garnered largely positive response from critics. Steve Huey of AllMusic described the band as “one of the most unusual cult bands of the 1990s…” driven by frontman Mike Doughty’s stream-of-consciousness poetry. Soul Coughing’s sound was a willfully idiosyncratic mix of improvisational jazz grooves, oddball samples, hip hop, electronics, and noisy experimentalism”. Doughty himself described the band’s sound as “deep slacker jazz”. The group broke up in 2000.
