For this new decade, one of the new voices of
R&B will no doubt be that of singer Ebony Evans. Coming from a rich
heritage of music, the Harlem, Georgia native is no stranger to the music
industry. Ebony Evans was introduced to the world by the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, and
signed to his label at the age of 12 in 1992.
From performing at halftime for major league sports events to
appearances on the national television show Star Search, Ebony Evans began
developing her skills at a early age. Years later in 1999 Ebony Evans was a
featured soloist on the Grammy nominated Georgia Mass Choir album: Georgia Mass Choir Present Youth For Christ:
"Higher".
Finally in
2006 Ebony Evans released her critically acclaimed independent debut album "Luv's Fire". The albums original
sound, reminiscent of the 'classic soul' sound of the 60's and 70's, provided a
platform for what national and
international radio and magazine media called a "young lady whose
name you will recognize for years to come". Nominated for SEA Award R&B album of the
year and was received instantly by radio and media in Europe, being licensed in
several films and music documentaries from U.K. to Germany. " Luv's Fire" was both a critical
success and a fans delight, featuring her radio chart topping single
"Somebody Let Him Know" as well as the remake of 70's Northern Soul artist Tearra
and her hit single "Loving
You" .
The maturity Ebony Evans displays on her latest sophomore
album "You Did It
All" is underscored by her remarkable versatility
and cosmopolitan panache. From
the moment Ebony entered the studio to record "You
Did It All", she knew that she wanted to unleash a sound that was
soulful, yet melodic. Pretty, yet mature. Something different, yet something
familiar enough to entice listeners. The first single, "Dance My Love With
You" featuring Sultan Muhammed (SOS Band),
was a instant radio hit and
featured on the popular U.K. music compilation series Contemporary Soul
Songbook Vol. 3. "You Did It All"
also features the international dance hit " Just Because
of You", and the ballad "Silent Running" named in Radio Wave Monitor's Top 25 year end Top Urban A/C singles for 2011. Ebony Evans
voice connects with the
songs giving them substance and passion,
with a nostalgic R&B sound. "I really enjoyed tapping
into other topics on You Did It All",
some of the challenging parts of relationships,
but still keeping the theme of positive relationship songs".
Ebony Evans
is here to unleash songs with the
substance and passion, reminiscent of the 'golden years' of R&B. Her
initial album releases prove she is here to make more than 'hit' singles, she
wants classic pieces of work in her catalog . And these are just the beginning
opening salvos from a singer who has elevated the stakes for modern day soul
and R&B music.
