  • Description

    'Twenty Sixty Four', the Atlanta-based singer-songwriter Avery*Sunshine's third album, is full of soulful, supple grooves that make even complex meters seem easy. Perfectly shaped ballads, carefully written arrangements and orchestrations round off the album's captivating character alongside of lively, life-affirming tracks.

    Her unique, uncompromising soul/R&B sound has made Avery*Sunshine believers out of luminaries such as Patti LaBelle and Berry Gordy. The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin has raved: "I love Avery*Sunshine!"

    Avery's voice warms your soul during the record's entire playing time, while the production draws attention to natural sounds. However, it is Avery's songwriting which is foremost, with which she once again hits the mark. Tracks include "Come Do Nothing", the first single of the album, which made it to 15th place in the Billboard Urban Adult Contemporary charts, Avery pines for a lover and times when there is time for doing nothing particular together. "I Just Don't Know" is adorned with a beautiful string quartet, while 2Kiss And Make It Better" impresses with an arrangement that evokes soul music of the '70s.

    Avery*Sunshine and Dana "Big Dane" Johnson, her musical partner and husband, have toured or collaborated as a collective with different stars such as Michael Buble, B. B. King, Babyface, Anthony Hamilton, KEM, Will Downing, Gregory Porter, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Roy Ayers and Jennifer Holliday.

    Avery*Sunshine's trademark-like, optimistic, message-driven R&B in conjunction with her shiny, charismatic voice has created a steadily growing fan base." - Billboard

    "With nothing more than a guitar accompanist, her two hands at the piano and a jazzy gospel voice that could even loosen bricks from their mortar, Avery*Sunshine lights up every room." - The New York Times
