With his roots firmly planted in the Southern Delta, this Memphis-native singer and songwriter found his passion in a blend of blues, soul and folk-rock. He grew up immersed in music, after famed songwriter Joe Leathers gave him an electric guitar aged 5 and would continue to mentor him. Inspired by Memphis’ history and rustic grit, he released his debut single “Don’t Stop” earlier this year.
His sophomore single adds a touch of gospel to his signature, vintage-tinted sound. Starting with an exalted, easygoing organ and mild percussion, it’s his divine vocals with a rapturous roughness, which give this melody a glorious edge. And with the addition of electric and acoustic guitars, completing the aural unity, it transcends the ordinary, rising to an extraordinary harmonic heaven.
