Tad Robinson: A new point of view

This collection of modern soul/blues has reverberations of past singers and yet is a forward leap for the music. Truly a hand-made project, A New Point of View was made the "old-school" way with tender loving care. Originals like "Long Way Home" give a nod to Issac Hayes, while Johnnie Taylor's "Ain't That Lovin' You (For More Reasons than One)" draws more inspiration from Dennis Brown's version than the original. Each song creates a balance between classic and modern style

On Edenton, Kemp Harris’ wide range of experience comes through in a powerful and intensely personal album. The album features the legendary Holmes Brothers on backing vocals. The Brothers bring the full force of their talent, providing deep, rootsy harmonies to the raw-boned force of Harris’ lead.
