Soul Coughing: Whatever Happened To The Band Behind "Super Bon Bon", 'Circles'

[@martinhsl68hw]

And now Soul Coughing are back!

[@kaleidoscopesthirdeyevizions]

And I just saw them and they are playing great ❤

[@robash5474]

"Ruby Vroom"" I can't believe this terrific album only sold 70, 000 copies. It was legendary amongst my circle of college friends. I mistakenly thought it was massively popular elsewhere.

[@devilsforkdigital1490]

Sort of the same. Introduced via a friend and "Screenwriter's Blues" which is such an amazing piece of music.

[@drdanr]

thats all? I got at least 70 people into this album all by myself

[@tegdirb1017]

Ruby Vroom was the most amazing album to hit of the 90’s. Nothing sounded like it. Live they were brilliant. Love you Mike .

[@seriousbassface]

Just saw them a few days ago, literally one of the best shows I've ever seen and I've seen A LOT. They sounded incredible, super tight, no rust. Honestly if they had recorded what they played it would have been better than whats on the album, which is saying a lot because their albums are great. Absolutely insane, so glad they got back together.

[@Antonio_Ortiz]

Super Bon Bon was truly cutting-edge. Left a strong impression on me, even as a young Black kid in the 90's. Dove into their discography a few years back as an adult and was not disappointed.

[@angelaa1611]

Super Bon Bon is my dog's favorite song lol! He's had the same fav toy since be was a puppy, a bunny named "Bun-bun." At some point, I played the song for him and told him it's "The Bun-bun song." He's loved it ever since and goes wild when I play it for him.

[@metheus108]

My younger brother was in HS when Super Bon Bon came out and one of his friends had a theory about what the song was about. I'm not saying that this IS what it was about, but the friend said he thought it was about the men's room in one of the NY museums, because the men's room at the time was a pay toilet on the mezzanine level

[@capt_beefheart4159]

I used to annoy my friends with Super Bon Bon Propellerheads remix and used to sing it as "Move aside and let the mango through. Let the mango through." Not misheard, just more entertaining.

[@nathanxxvii]

Mixed guy here.. yes.

[@crudecube]

A popular YT channel covering a band like SC is incredibly rare and I'd like to thank you so much for this. Every day I check KZbin's search results for new videos and none of them surpass 1,000 views. Without a doubt this is my favorite band, and I've been waiting for someone to document the bands history in a video format in depth like this for so long. To cut it short, this is awesome.

[@xavierdennis2161]

Agreed my friend my favorite band as well

[@AlexMi77]

Totally agree. This is one of the most underrated bands in history. Disruptive sound.

[@grimmwerks]

And they sound great

[@marpsr]

One of my favorite bands. I never get tired of listening to Ruby Vroom. A true masterpiece. Plus my ex couldn’t stand them.

[@ilznidiotic]

They piss off all the right people.

[@JohnDoe-wq5eu]

It's funny because that one song that uses like that ominous old cartoon music I've heard people say it scares the crap out of them. I love that song though.

[@ogami1972]

"El Oso" is still fantastic.

[@DichotomousRex]

All three are great but Ruby Vroom is timeless

[@proyectosfamiliares805]

It’s an album you listen to while “rolling”. 3 subs in the trunk and you feel it’s music

[@JGProductions6581]

So good that a nicktoons villain was named after it.

[@scottbartlett4853]

Just saw Soul Coughing play in Denver. Incredible show! The sound was perfect. I had previously seen Mike play with a couple of different backing bands. Those shows were really good, This tour has shown me just what chemistry in a band can do. If you have the chance? Do! Pay too much I'm telling you it's worth it!

[@JC42023]

I remember actually hearing Soul Coughing's songs Circles and Rollin' on Cartoon Network sometime around the turn of the millennium I never found out who it was but the songs always stayed with me Then I heard Super Bon Bon as a teenager and got interested enough in the band to learn more about them, including coming back to the Cartoon Network songs They're now one of my favorite bands

[@JohnDoe-wq5eu]

Yep, same here. Heard circles and I think I'm rollin'. Then ended up stumbling across CDs of all three of their albums fantastic stuff. I can't think of another band that does stuff like them.

[@leon4000]

Same here. I learned about them the exact same way.

[@talkingfez1265]

Me too!!!!!! Thank you CN for showing this cool band!!!!!!!!!!

[@makehaste6619]

I was a little kid an came across that “grovie” very late at night, it blew my mind and I remember trying to stay awake just so I can hear it again. I remember rollin’ as the beginning of this passion for music I fully realize I have many years later :’)

[@rzerobzero]

They're back , baby.

[@conniebaete2054]

Here in 2024, after seeing them play in SLC. What an amazing show.

[@smathfury]

I got to do sound for one of Mike’s solo shows in 2018. He was so professional, nice and unpretentious.. Very humble. I wish him all the luck in the world!!

[@phoebe5]

its a shame hearing that he got the short end of the stick so to speak when it comes to soul coughing.

[@tomryder3641]

I don't think he did at all. Your bandmates ain't you momma, they're not going to baby you over substance abuse.@@phoebe5

[@happyninja42]

I was actually listening to my favorite Soul Coughing songs last night on my drive home. My favorite is Lazybones. That song has got such a unique, chill vibe to it. The constant guitar notes that start out the song, and stay constant throughout the entire tune. The syncopated drum beats, the low and hypnotic bass line. And then Doughtry's lyrics flowing through, with his signature "uuuhh" sound at the end of nearly every sentence. It's just such a fantastic track. It always reminds me of how I felt as a teenager, on a hot summer evening, right as dusk is fading into night. With nothing to do but watch the sky shift to darkness and stars. The sounds of animals and traffic flowing through my open window as a backing track to the season. That song truly transports me.

[@casetteplayer]

One of my top 5 songs

[@happyninja42]

@@casetteplayer yeah it's one of those songs that is very personal for me. hits a nostalgia bone that most music doesn't.

[@josephnoneofyourbeeswax8517]

I heard Super Bon Bon on Reacher and LOVED it!

[@loyalbeta]

Soul Coughing has been one of my favorite bands for forever. I’m SO HAPPY you did this as I think they’re constantly overlooked and under appreciated. I saw them live on the El Oso tour, and it was just fantastic. I missed them playing the Metro in Chicago by a week. I’ve been lucky enough to see Doughty live a bunch of times. I’ve talked to him and he’s really nice and gracious to fans.

[@PC__________1973]

the propellerheads remix of super bon bon is absolutely next level and still stands up today....so good.

[@LoveLawWill]

Just saw SC in Seattle. AMAZING!! So glad they got back together even if only for one tour!!

[@cronkitesatellite]

Heeeeeey you did my request!!! Thanks!! I love this band so much. Too bad they never lasted but I suppose all art is temporary. I’ve always had a dream that one day Soul Coughing will reunite but Doughty won’t want to rejoin the group and I wind up filling in on vocals. Someday…. Someday…

[@victorchapa6307]

Well, I’m glad to say your wish came true, my friend. 😉

[@gonesavage]

Well, my longstanding internet moniker comes from Screenwriter's Blues. Just loved how those two words sounded together. Glad to see all the love for this band.

[@jwal1992]

Amazing that they announced a reunion tour last week with all original members

[@thericeclubpodcast]

[@dublblind]

Having read Mike's biography, I am absolutely shocked this is happening!

[@OhNoJon812]

Thank you for doing this! I lived in Minneapolis in the early 90's. I got the chance to see them many times and turned many of my friends. To this day, they are my favorite band.

[@aVerveQuest]

Still coughing has to be one of the most diverse original bands of all time. Stream writers blues and true dreams of Wichita are epic, Ruby Vroom incredibly underrated.

[@rblfrmthewstdwn]

Oh shoot I remember them. Dude keep it up with these somewhat obscure bands. I’m still in awe of the jellyfish video. I had never heard their music although was somewhat aware of the band. Now I’m obsessed! Thanks 🙏

[@MikeCohenSF]

They are back together! I saw the a few weeks ago and they're fantastic.

[@sw9979]

I’m seeing them next year! Can’t wait!🎉🎉

[@bonsaitomato8290]

I would see these guys performing all the time in 1994-95 when I was in graduate school where I was getting an MFA. I lived in Williamsburg Brooklyn and Soul Coughing was playing in all of our studios while we worked. We would leave our studios in Chelsea and head down to the Lower East side and would see them and other great bands at the Knitting Factory or Max Fish or some tiny loft “club” that just sprang up the week before and would probably be closed by the end of the month. They were a gem something only we knew and we hoped to keep it that way. You say they only sold 70,000 albums and I think they all went to me and my friends. Seriously was a great band and a small group of devoted fans that circled around them. Skateboarders , of which I was one, loved them . Was bummed that they broke up but I’m glad to see Mike is doing better I had heard he was in a bad place for a while. Thanks for the video.

[@vansnyder9499]

yup. I was there too. Cheers!

[@iggypyro78]

I saw them for the first time in Cleveland in the Fall of 96 at the Odeon - stood right up front next to the stage, and they brought the place down that night. One of the best shows I've ever seen. It was pure manic insanity. I then saw them three or four more times after that before they broke up, but nothing was like that first time. I only knew one song and just decided to check them out on a whim - Failure opened that night too - and I became a fan for life after that. When El Oso came out, they played the bigger Agora theater - and that show was insane too. Great live band. I really wish they would've lasted longer.

[@AnxiousCowboy]

as someone who spent an important part of my life hanging out inLES and living in bedstuy (cus williamsburg is expensive) from early 2000's cool story-- wish i had been old enough to experience that area in the time youre speaking of

@@iggypyro78 Hell yeah. I was at both of those Cleveland shows. OMG, the El Oso tour at The Agora was so awesome! I’m still in awe of Yuval playing those D&B beats live.

[@NoBrakes23]

I've owned their music for almost 30 years, yet somehow I had never seen the video for Super Bon Bon until today.

[@SolRC]

Yuval was amazing drummer to watch live. In one summer in the 90's I was privileged to see him and Quest Love do insanely long drum solos . Yuval did his with a dollar bill sweat glued to his forehead. They both looked like machines, amazing.

[@andrewhime7701]

[@DokkaChapman]

Truly one of my all time favourite bands of the 90's. Doughty's works from then and since has been a constant wash of creative bliss. His vocals for 808 State is just *chef's kiss*. 'El Oso' is still one of my favourites.

[@tomryder3641]

*Doughty's works*? Mark Degli Antoni can likely claim at least half of the success of soul coughing if my suspicions are correct. Yuval & Seb might have something to say too. I only say this because all of Doughty's solo stuff has frankly sounded incredibly lacklustre to me.

[@CuteStreamerGirl]

See you guys at the reunion tour!

[@digitalbobby42]

Soul Coughing is still one of my favorite bands from the 90's, saw them in Chicago and they were fantastic. I loved their sound which I found to be a mix of alternative, rock, jazz, and spoken word poetry. This band should have been much bigger in my opinion, but they imploded.

[@Everclearfan86]

First discovered Soul Coughing as a little kid when Cartoon Network would play videos to Circles and Rolling set to old cartoons. Ended up re-discovering them as a teenager and devoured their whole discography. El Oso is still one of my personal top favorites.

[@elmago9547]

Great band!! We used to play Ruby Vroom a lot at the Nova Express, a bar i worked during the 90s in LA. Sugar free jazz...

[@nathanxxvii]

They currently got back together and are touring right now!

[@jasoncombs3232]

Love soul coughing. So underrated. Still jam them from time to time

[@munkduane]

Thank you for this! SC were my favorite band in the 90's. A few notes: Keyboardist's name is Mark DeGli Antoni (pronounced degli Antoni) not Dilianti. Drummer Yuval Gabay's last name is pronounced Gu-Bye like "Goodbye". Otherwise, I love seeing a criminally underrated band getting some attention. Thank you!

[@jizmoglass4202]

I love some Mike Doughty. I saw Soul Coughing at a concert In Mpls. with a bunch of other bands called "Zone for the Holidays" because the radio station that sponsored it was "the Zone". Amazing band. Amazing DJ. Mike is amazing. Get onto the bus. Cheers.

[@Shadowbannddiscourse]

I sae these guys live . They were totally avant garde and they put that into their sound

[@ohiotattoo1]

wow. great video on an even greater band. caught them at the Euclid Tavern in Cleveland back in the 90s. props for keeping great stuff alive like this on your channel. oh year, they toured with Cop Shoot Cop, another N.Y.C. band. spotlight the next. Their album Release is more than a banger

[@thedeliberatemyth]

So happy to see this vid. One of my favorote shows of all time was a 1995 show at my college with Morphine and Soul Coughing. SC was so damn ahead of its time. Would absolutely love to see them do a reunion.

[@martinhsl68hw]

And now they're doing a reunion!

[@skeeter197140]

They had one of the greatest websites of any band, ever. Well crafted, well thought out....lyrics, stories about the songs. The day they split up, the home screen just said (I'm paraphrasing) "After so many years and three albums we have decided to go separate ways". One day it was business as usual, the next they were gone. Sometimes I don't know if I miss them or the website more!

[@justinhill2378]

I would pay sooooo much money to go to a soul coughing reunion show.

[@phantomcreamer]

I went to see Mike for one of his solo performances in 2002. It was amazing, the guy really killed it. Afterwards he was wandering around the hallways of the university. He seemed kind of alone. I wanted to invite him to hang out, but didn't want to impose on such a great musician as an 17-year old kid.

[@ranman75]

They use to be one of my favorite bands. I have seen Mike's solo project a couple times too.

[@boydmanuel9257]

The perfect mix of quirky and funky with a hip hop nod and random sounds and samples from Mark. It was perfect for entertaining the adult world in the mid to late nineties. Thanks to a good friend who turned me on to the ‘Ruby Vroom’ album in ‘95. I became an instant fan an never looked back. ‘Irresistible Bliss’ is hands-down still my favorite of the three.

[@tonybilello9340]

No way. I have seen Mike Doughty open for Big Head Todd in Greensboro, NC. I didn't look too deep into his career but I will have to check out this band!

[@jimschleich8753]

When they started a buddy of mine misread the name as "Soul COUCH-ing"! They sounded great no matter the name!

Soul Coughing oh my god. I was obsessed with them as a kid ever since I heard "Circles" on Cartoon Network.

[@williamjosephdunn5879]

I saw Soul Coughing open up for Cop Shoot Cop at Maxwell’s before their first album came out. They were amazing live. I thought the first album was really good, but didn’t quit capture their live energy. Speaking of Cop Shoot Cop, that’s an under rated band you should do a video on. The singer of ¢$¢, Todd A, later went on to form Firewater that Yuval Gabay ended up playing with for a brief time.

[@philyeary8809]

In 96 they were still touring college radio, which is how I met them. I have a compilation album for my local U with them on it from that time. Arguably the widest audience they were ever introduced to was via the X Files album.

I definitely didn't realize that was a soul coughing song until just now going to have to go look that up.

[@obizhot]

Love Soul Coughing! Got to see Mike Doughty solo not too long after I moved to San Diego in the early '00's. Hated the venue, loved the show.

[@tyronebrown9936]

I saw them in Port Chester around 1995 or 96. You could go right up and talk to them before the show; they encouraged interaction and were very cool and friendly. Doughty was fantastic, a little on purpose a little David Byrne and a little avant garde cool. He took a position. I really liked that band and while I liked all the players I thought he was the prodigy who stirred the drink.

[@davidhuffman1173]

my first time hearing Sou Coughing was late nite [adult swim] with the videos for circles (involving and OLD school cartoon of cows racing) and another song with another OLD school cartoon of like minnie mouse being shady or somesuch I can't remember exactly. El Oso is a great album.

I saw them touring when they were opening for They Might be Giants. I remember them being one of the few opening acts the Giants ever had the audience really seemed to genuinely enjoy. I was used to one of the Johns having to come out before the opening act and remind the audience to treat the opener with respect because despite what the audience may think, they were chosen to be the opening act because both John and John enjoyed their music. (Soul Coughing and OK Go) are honestly, those are the only two opening acts I've seen with TMBG that I even remember despite having seen them dozens of times. I know I went out and bought their first two albums immediately and then El Oso as soon as it came out. I still have all three of them on rotation to this day.
