KANDACE SPRINGS at Yoshi's Oakland

After a wait of almost three years, Kandace Springs’ legion of worldwide fans finally has a new album to look forward to. 2024’s Run Your Race, her tribute to her late father, legendary Nashville soul singer Scat Springs, is the first album of hers to feature almost all original songs, written by Kandace both solo and with some stellar collaborators, such as Gregg Wells (Adele), Matt Hales (Lianne La Havas), and her long-time partners Evan Rogers and Carl Sturken (Rihanna). “This album is probably the most personal one I’ll ever make,” says Ms. Springs. “My dad was a huge influence on my life and my music, and when he passed away earlier this year, I knew I had to pay tribute to him with this record.”
