Tamaraebi has that soulful appeal.
A vocalist who is steeped in vintage R&B - everyone from Marvin Gaye to the Quiet Storm era to D Angelo crop up in conversation - he s also dedicated to ploughing his own path.
New EP Spectrum lands on May 19th, and it s a vivid depiction of a talent in bloom, with Tamaraebi allowing his old school influences to intersect with some deeply personal moments.
Take new slomo cut Brown Angel . A seductive piece of neo-soul that arrives with some psychedelic influences, the sumptuous sonics is matched to that preening, powerful vocal.
Tamaraebi describes it as a stoner s love song , before adding: Brown Angel is a modern-day psychedelic blues song with hip-hop and R&B undertones.
