(November 10, 2016) It’s been a decade since we introduced SoulTrackers to Nashville-based singer, songwriter and Grammy nominated producer Antonio Neal. The former basketball player proved to be an insightful songwriter who was equally effective giving praise to God or observing life here on Earth, all set to songs that gave a modern feel while harkening back to classic 70s soul music.
It’s been awhile since we heard from Antonio, but he is back November 11 with the impressive eight song EP, I Am America. This disc provides a soul-wrenching perspective of life in present day America, set to sparse arrangements that lay bare the honesty of his lyrics.
We’re really enjoying the cut “Take It Easy.” It is a gentle, acoustic song with a powerful message. As Antonio tells us about the song, “’Take It Easy’ is a song that I was inspired to write after seeing an article about PTSD and Wellness on Twitter. It softly asks the listener to be wise in ones pursuit of justice and freedom.”
So we’re especially excited to offer the WORLD PREMIERE of “Take It Easy” below. Take a listen, and then check out all of I Am America. Welcome back, Antonio!
