Soul (Canadian TV series)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Soul is a Canadian dramatic television miniseries, which aired on Vision TV in 2009.[1] The series starred Keshia Chanté as a singer in a church choir, who is tempted by the prospect of pursuing commercial pop music stardom as a soul and rhythm and blues singer.[2]

The cast also included Jessica Parker Kennedy, Mpho Koaho, Eli Goree, Kim Roberts, Karen LeBlanc, Benjamin Charles Watson and Clé Bennett.

The series aired six hour-long episodes.

The series received two Gemini Award nominations at the 24th Gemini Awards, for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama (Koaho)[3] and Best Writing in a Drama Series (Floyd Kane).[4]
