About Collective Soul
Collective Soul is a rock band from Stockbridge, GA, formed in 1992.
Collective Soul is the band Ed Roland built in Stockbridge, Georgia, after years of writing songs on his own. Their 1993 debut, Hints, Allegations and Things Left Unsaid, began as a collection of demos, and "Shine" spread through college radio before a major label picked the record up. Roland's brother Dean plays rhythm guitar.
The self-titled 1995 follow-up held both "December" and "The World I Know", and "Heavy" kept them on rock radio at the end of the decade. The songs sit between post-grunge crunch and melodic pop-rock, with Roland's choruses carrying most of the weight.
