We’ve been covering Wilmington, Delaware singer, songwriter and community organizer Fred Reed for a few years now, and there are few contemporary artists who combine old school sensibilities with new school sensitivities like Reed. With his perceptive lyrics and powerfully soulful voice, he has been a treat for modern soul music fans.
Reed brings that entire package to his new holiday entry, “For Old Times Sake.” The song reminisces on Christmases of old, and reflects on the gift of “presence” for the holidays – being around those we love.
The powerful message is wrapped up in a slow-burning R&B package that works any time of the year. We’re proud to present “For Old Times Sake” as our newest SoulTracks Choice Cut. Check it out below.
