Art n' Soul is an American contemporary R&B group that was active in the mid-1990s. The band consisted of Sam Bostic (lead vocals, bass, and keyboards), Rodney Lattrel Evans (keyboards) and Dion Riley (drums).[3]

Prior to forming Art n' Soul, Bostic attempted a solo career under Atlantic Records with his 1985 debut album Circuitry.[4] [5] After the album stalled, he turned to production for other artists such as E-40, The Conscious Daughters, 2Pac and Master P.[6]

Tony! Toni! Toné! drummer Timothy Christian Riley helped the trio secure a recording contract with Atlantic Records subsidiary Big Beat Records to release their 1996 debut Touch of Soul .[7] Their debut album yielded two singles: "Ever Since You Went Away" and "All My Luv".
