The latest single from Chris Ballin, "Beautiful", (posted from promo last week) was officially released on Monday (29 May '23). It's his signature silky R&B/Soul sound on a mid-tempo song complemented by the acoustic guitar described as a summer anthem. We are told that Chris is currently focused on releasing a new solo album soon.
Know for his ballads, Chris wanted to showcase his flexibility and wanted to do something uplifting, different, fresh and upbeat for the Summer. We think he's succeeded. Give it a few listens as this one just grows and grows on you.
He last featured here in Jun '21 with a classy single "What's Going On" (NOT the Marvin Gaye classic) an original song which we rated a 9, a rating given to very few releases, so if you've not had the privilege of hearing it click the link above to listen and see if you think we got it about right!
