Track Listing:
Feeling on 21st June 2024, the first fruit of her fourth solo artist album due early
next year. Good Feeling swings, sways and shimmies with playful Latino spirit;
a summer-fun delight all about seizing the day and embracing love and life.
Sae’s sizzling vocals dance in and around deft keys, layered horns, tight guitar
parts and, of course, that infectious percussion. Verses switch up to agile scat
solos and down to emotive breakdowns – it’s the very best of feelings….
Good Feeling is produced by Chris Franck, co-founder of Da Lata, chief
instigator behind Zeep, Smoke City and Batu, and long-standing mastermind for
a wealth of other studio projects and remixes. The record features a talented
cast of musicians including award-winning Brazilian composer Rafael Martini,
who arranged and conducted the horn sections in one of Latin music’s truest
heartlands Belo Horizonte.
Kelli Sae’s story has it all. An internationally acclaimed artist, she previously
shone as lead vocalist for renowned jazz-funk collectives Incognito, Count
Basic and Defunkt, and worked with Tina Turner, Chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle,
Ashford & Simpson and Me’shell Ndegéocello among others. Born of Puerto
Rican, African and French descent, Sae has soulful eclecticism in her blood.
The exciting mix of sounds, cultures and influences across her three,
independently-released solo albums to date is testament to this, as well as her
respected forays into composing, playwrighting and stage performance.
Good Feeling is Kelli Sae’s latest impactful outing for Reel People Music,
following singles Good Love, Right Now and Believe In A Brighter Day earlier
this decade. The special relationship is set to blossom further over the coming
months.
