MT Jones
Gathering inspiration from '60s and '70s soul greats across the Atlantic to modern R&B and jazz, MT JONES evokes a sound that is both contemporary and timeless. His deeply soulful vocals transport you straight back to a smoke-filled speakeasy, which somehow still feels fresh and innovative.
Between stints working on music regularly in Liverpool & London, Jones has travelled the world as a musician & penned songs for other artists, making a name for himself as a gifted and prolific songwriter. Since then, lockdown gave him the time and space to put his talent under his own name. His debut single ‘I Won't Ever Say Goodbye’ is a soulful, heart-on-sleeve ballad that marks the start of big things & his latest single ‘Feeling Lonely’ has quickly followed suit.
Jones received great support from BBC introducing multiple spins on 1xtra, a ‘Step up’ artist on the show. He has also enjoyed strong playlist support from Spotify, including several New Music Friday adds in the UK. This is only the start for this highly memorable and distinctive singer, song writer, musician and creator, watch this space!
Woolly Mack
Woolly Mack is a fresh and funky collection of artists from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The music, influenced by STAX records, '70s disco, deep funk, and more is a danceable exploration of timeless themes. Pick your favorite flavor: low end that sits at the front end, or a touch of organ? Smoky triple vocals and a touch of wah pedal make up a new, and signature, sound.
Artists involved: Drummer Mark Zoller; Bassist Josh McGuire; Guitarist Tony Petersen; Keyboardist Ethan Rasmussen; Vocalists Starbourne, Vera J Kent, Charisma Pruitt
