Since their creation in 2010, Soen has been touring in many countries, particularly in Europe and South America. However, the current tour is the second one they are doing in North America.

Tasting alcohol and listening to the music of St. Paul and the Broken Bones was the mixed program on May 9, 2024 at the Roadrunner in Allston, Massachusetts. For the hundreds of fans who attended the event, the motivation was simple. After a long day at work, or a stressful week, taking a few drinks might sound like just what you need to start the weekend.
The conversation was loud. The atmosphere was electric. That was crazy, I’ve not experienced in a long time that sort of passion for drinking and music in a nightclub. It was amusing to see in almost every corner someone is drinking. The fans were there for two things. Discovering over 60 whiskies as part of The WhiskyX’s experience, and dancing. As a professional photographer with my camera, I walked around the place to capture the moment.
