(May 7, 2018) A couple years ago, we were swept away by singer and songwriter K.Avett. The Texas-based artist won us over from the jump with her cool amalgamation of sounds; tough to define, but easy to enjoy. While she showed elements of her Gospel upbringing in her music, she added a heavy dose of both soul and jazz to create her own vibe, and which made her debut album, Revelations, a real treat.
For the past few months, we’ve been anxiously anticipating K. Avett’s sophomore album, Lioness. It’s now here, and it is everything we’d hoped for. Incredible songwriting, a real message in the lyrics, and, of course, her top notch vocals over it all. The sounds is just right for adult soul music fans of 2018, and we think she’s going to find an audience far beyond.
One of the songs from the album that we are especially digging is her duet with R&B favorite Noel Gourdin. The midtempo number is a great blend of two memorable voices with a result that we think SoulTrackers are going to dig. Check out “Soldier” below — it’s our newest SoulTracks First Listen!
