Soul Coughing’s music nearly defies description.

Soul Coughing’s music nearly defies description. Not because it’s difficult or provocative, necessarily, but rather because it so skillfully fuses such disparate parts (jazz, hip-hop, free associative spoken word, pop, rock) that the resulting concoction is overwhelming in its originality.

The New York City group Soul Coughing will pass through Dallas with a show at the Longhorn Ballroom on April 18.
