Gizelle Smith Taps Into The Vein Of Classic Soul On Eric Boss-Assisted "Hero"


February 15, 2018

Even just a cursory skim through Gizelle Smith's release will quickly tell you that a) she's got a stunning voice and b) she's incredibly well-informed when it comes to her taste in music.

The rich, golden age of soul air to her new single "Hero" bursts from the speakers, wearing the influence of Motown and '70s soul proudly on its sleeve. With a nod to the classic soul partnerships we all love, Stones Throw Records' Eric Boss steps in to add his own velvet vocals to the mix.

Music like this doesn't come from nowhere, so we can only there's plenty more where this came from.
