November 5th was no ordinary Bonfire affair for the Morpheus Soul family, as we were proud to announce that our first special guest of the month was the super talented Colonel Red!!!

Singer/songwriter/producer Redz has just recently released his fantastic third album ‘Keep Walkin’ on Tokyo Dawn Records. Colonel Red‘s first album ‘Blue Eye Blak’ was released in 2005, and in 2009 he gave us the brilliant ‘Sweet Liberation’ both on the Ruff Language Label.

We talked music & life with Redz as well as playing a large selection of his back catalogue…Plus, a LIVE jam session alongside The Temporary Resident’s very own vibes-master Lyrickal. So Dope!

ENJOY!

Ahead of it’s September 9th physical release the good folks over at Toyko Dawn Records have offered up a preview stream of Colonel Red’s new album Keep Walkin’.

Deep rooted in (neo)Soul, Jazz and Funk – this album is sure to satisfy most connoisseurs, especially those partial to little D’Angelo, Badu, Saadiq etc.

Red’s voice is beautifully toned, technically fantastic. His melodies and harmonies are excellently structured and sonically superb – the music which accompanies him (soulful piano & guitar sections, funky horns etc) is neoteric but still familiar and welcoming.

Keep Walkin’ is digitally available now.

‘Keep Walkin’ With Colonel Red

Colonel Red has been popping up on my radar from time to time for the last five or six years. Born in my hometown of Birmingham, UK but now residing in London, the half-Jamaican, half-English singer/producer has worked alongside an eclectic mix of respected soul artists including Teddy Pendergrass, Anita Baker, Bugz In The Attic, Amp Fiddler, and many more. In addition to his collaborative work, Colonel Red has released two solo albums, 2005′s Blue Eye Blak and 2009′s Sweet Liberation, and he is now gearing up to release his third, Keep Walkin’, on the Tokyo Dawn label. Those familiar with Tokyo Dawn’s output may have heard Red on The Heart Volume Two compilation or SoulParlor’s evoluzion, but now we can get our hands on his full 15-track TD debut. The album will appeal to fans of early Raphael Saadiq, D’Angelo, or those craving a modern take on the classic sounds of Marvin Gaye. Yes, this may well sound like the usual PR hype but you don’t have to take my word for it, press play on the slow-burn groove “Rain A Fall” and the chilled-out “I Will Be There” below and decide for yourselves. The CD is scheduled for release on September 9th, but you can preview all tracks/grab an advance digital download from the Tokyo Dawn site.

Colonel Red’s new album ‘Keep Walkin’ resonates with the rich influences and experiences of his heritage, yet still speaks with honest humility of familiar themes of faith, hope and love, that captures the essence of the contradictions and challenges that come our way, making the most of our lives, living our dreams and finding love in a society under pressure.
