Jazz, gospel, blues... superb black southern soul!
American Gregory Porter is a natural. A phenomenal singer. We've known that here since North Sea Jazz and the breakthrough CD 'Be Good' from 2012.
This is moving, lively blues, jazz, gospel, 'black southern soul' in the best tradition of Nat King Cole or Marvin Gaye. For those who also get a kick out of Donny 'The Ghetto' Hathaway, Bill 'Ain't No Sunshine' Withers, Gil -'The Bottle' Scot-Heron...
Romanticism is elegantly paired with social commentary. Passion and precision. You can hear a charming baritone that sings both fluidly and with inspiration (oh, and you can easily recognize Gregory Porter right away too, by his eye-catching cap.)
Now with the new, again very dashing, CD 'Liquid Spirit' on the illustrious Blue Note label (with Don Was as boss and now via Universal.) Loosely interpreted, ‘Liquid Spirit’ sounds fluid and energetic!
Who gets a great opportunity as support-act here in the sold-out flex: Roselien – in full: Roselien Tobbackx – who, so to see and read, is already scoring well with tracks like Truth: https://soundcloud.com/roselienmusic/truth
