Contemporary jazz-R&B funkster Brian Culbertson has had love on his mind essentially since last Valentine's Day. Inspired by the occasion of his twentieth wedding anniversary last fall, the keyboardist began writing thirteen new songs about a year ago dedicated to his wife, Michelle, which make up his “Colors of Love” album that was released on Wednesday, Valentine's Day, by BCM Entertainment. Substituting the live band instrumentation customary of his recordings, Culbertson crafted an intimate set of ardent acoustic piano melodies using sensual synth grooves and textures. With the title track of his eighteenth album that he wrote, arranged and produced already in the Billboard Top 5, his attention is fixed on creating the highly-theatrical production he'll take on the road for nearly three months beginning March 30 across the bridge from Philadelphia in Collingswood, New Jersey and concluding in Seattle on June 17.

Valentine's Day is a day for lovers, romantic talks, and emotional perspectives! Here comes “Porcelaine,” the perfect sound bed for a day like that; a duet between the queen of burlesque and the most romantic French musician since… Serge Gainsbourg.

Drowse, the nom de plume of Kyle Bates, will release its sophomore album on March 9th via The Flenser.  Titled Cold Air, the record continues to exorcise the demons that sent Bates spiraling into mental turmoil years ago. As evidenced by the album's second single, “Klonopin” (listen now via NPR), Cold Air is an album that frames big picture ideas within intimate, often shame-ridden experiences—a nose broken while blackout drunk, a seizure followed by feverish hallucinations, a father's stroke, the death of a close friend. Cold Air is the sound of the uncertainty beneath our lives surfacing.
