Kat Cunning – “For The Love”
Born as Katrina Cunningham in Oregon, this multi-talented entertainer found success as an actress of stage and screen and a model, as well as a musician. On TV she starred in HBO’s “The Deuce” and Netflix show “Trinkets”. On stage she performed in “Dangerous Liaisons” and Cirque Du Soleil’s “Paramour”. As a musician she crafts her songs by blending pop and soul with anthemic arrangements.
Building a rousing auditory spectacle, her new single is a stupendous slice of musical mastery. Layering classic pop with a touch of ascending soulfulness, it starts off with a punchy piano and a solitary beat, before reaching the dizzying heights of the invigorating chorus. With a catchy rolling drum and her bewitching vocals with a delightful raw edge, this is a phenomenal tune you just have to love.

Shalamar – “Amnesia”
From their album “Heartbreak” (1984):Evie Irie – “The Optimist”
From her EP “5 Weeks In L.A.” (2019):Odette Peters – “What A Lovely Day”
Having grown up on a steady diet of legends like Nina Simone and Diana Ross, this British singer and songwriter discovered her own soulful side from a young age. Initially aspiring to become a poet, she found the symmetry of putting those poetic words to music aged 13. Now based in London, she adds lyrical social commentary to a stirring neo-soul and jazz blend, creating an awe-inspiring sound.
Encouraging people to have an honest and open conversation about mental health and general wellbeing, her first single oozes a buttery-smooth wave of soulful jazz. The spoken intro over gentle electric piano gives the track a contemporary feel, while the mild rhythm and her sugarcoated, Macy Gray-reminiscent vocals add a more vintage jazz layer, making this an absolutely lovely debut.
