We posted this single "BRIGHTER LOVE" by Felece Tillman on Friday which we assumed was a debut release, which we found
difficult to comprehend as her voice is exquisite. We thought that she must have been at least
been a background vocalist for many years, or thought perhaps that any
earlier material may no longer be available?
We received a message from her this evening which, rather than
paraphrase, we have put in the comments below. Felece is from Washington D.C. and the release of her single coincided with her birthday.
One of the best parts of doing this 'job' is that independent artist
reach out with gratitude when all we do is try to find the 'diamonds in
the rough' and post them so that they may be heard by perhaps a wider
audience.
In summary, as we suspected/expected from her wonderful voice,
Felece confirmed that she has been singing for many years, has not
one, but two, degrees in music and works part time as a vocal coach
(no surprise there!). She confirms that this is indeed her debut
release and says that she has more music to come this year which we
will certainly be looking forward to hearing based upon her first
release.
When originally posted, we suggested that you don't skip or skim this
one as it build and builds and needs listening to properly to fully appreciate her vocal
talents (as we have) and that we looked forward to hearing much more
from her.
We also suggested that this will be a favourite amongst the Soul
Associates and that has already begun to happen and expect that it will
feature in most, if not all, of their playlists by the
weekend.
Had we not already jumped the gun with last week's SoulStrutter Selection
of the Week, which we posted early for the very first time on our
facebook page
thinking that nothing else would come near it but we were mistaken as,
this most certainly would have been a strong candidate.
Felece will be performing at The Dolphin Bar & Grill in Gambrills, MD, on 27 Jul so if you're in that area then why not
listen to her up close and personal?
