(September 11, 2019) Christian de Mesones is new to us, but not to making great music. The native New Yorker and DC transplant made his first big splash at the 2006 Capital Jazz Fest with his band Groove Skool, and he has been funking it up for audiences regularly ever since.
In January, Christian will be releasing his new album They Call Me Big New York in January, but in the meantime he is getting play around the world for his upbeat single, “Throb.” Opening with a touch of rock, it quickly moves through some eclectic jazz sounds before settling into a horn-filled funky number that is intoxicating.
We’re enjoying “Throb” and are looking forward to hearing the full album. Check it out below and welcome Christian to SoulTracks!
