My new album "Cherry-Colored Funk!" is out today, extended from the soundtrack of my short film that's playing at Tribeca. Big focus on genre blending and live instrumentation. Also very danceable. I'm super proud of it. Thanks for the support, means a lot! Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/3VTKqe...
