Around the Horn is the third album by Chicago-based alternative country band Souled American. It was released in 1990 by Rough Trade Records, and re-released, as part of the Framed box set, by tUMULt Records in 1999. According to AllMusic, "Around the Horn shows the band now fully master of a unique kind of Americana, here much more melancholy and gently downbeat than ever before, guitars more apt to ring softly or solitarily than anything else. The dub and r'n'b touches prevalent on the first two albums aren't as apparent here, but what the band loses in relative breadth it more than makes up for in atmosphere."
