Singer/songwriter Vanessa Collier’s sixth album Do It My Own Way was released September 13 via Phenix Fire Records. Recorded on analog gear with the musicians largely in one room, Do It My Own Way is sonically inspired by the classic Memphis soul sound of Stax and Hi Records, especially that of the Staples Singers. Second single “Wild As a Rainstorm,” which dives deep into soul territory, powerfully gives advice to women and people who feel left out to ignore the naysayers and “Be a tapestry of dreams.” The track been added to Spotify’s official Retro Soul playlist. The groove and horns would make Willie Mitchell proud, and indeed features legendary Hi Records organist Rev. Charles Hodges. The vocals are powerful, awe-inspiring, and undeniably soulful vocals.
Albert Castiglia refuses to stand still. From his career-launching work with blues legend Junior Wells to the award-winning solo career that followed, his journey is defined by both tradition and evolution. That journey continues with Grits & Glory, his thirteenth record since stepping out as a solo artist. Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, it’s both a continuation and a culmination — an anthology of everything he’s absorbed, lived, loved, and pushed against throughout three decades as a working-class songwriter.
