Aaron Frazer - Into the Blue
Label: Dead Oceans Genre: R&B / Retro Soul Reviewed by: Matt Nowinski
Falsetto heaven on a cloud of silky, old-timey soul. This is Aaron Frazer's (drummer and singer for Durand Jones & The Indications) second solo album after his aptly-named 2021 premiere, "Introducing...". "Into the Blue" mixes sounds from Motown, Stax, and even some western twang. The instrumentation is multi-layered, with several tracks featuring orchestral arrangements and backup singers. At times though, the album sounds a bit like a movie soundtrack. The best tracks feature Frazer's crooning over driving rhythmic melodies. Overall, this album is a solid choice for a chill evening.
