Nationwide — With the success of leading single ‘Forever and Always’ (2022) and the follow-up single, ‘Your Love Is,’ (2022) both reaching #1 on The Indie Soul Charts in both The United States and the United Kingdom, and the third single ‘Wherever You Are’ (2023) peaking at #4 in the U.S., Indie R&B, Soul Singer/Songwriter/Producer Devon Howard finally delivers his highly anticipated full-length album Morning Son.
The former member of the 90’s RCA Records R&B boy band Me 2 U is back with another amazing solo project. Performing alongside artists like SWV, Mario, Stephanie Mills, and the legendary Dionne Warwick, Devon has taken note from these greats, creating an identifiable sound all his own.
Loaded with good vibes and smooth vocals, this project, the follow-up to Devon’s ‘Return to Love’ (2015), continues with timeless stories of love over classic midtempo grooves.
Starting with the steppers remix version of Forever and Always, each song flows seamlessly into the next locking into a steady groove, setting the tone for the album. Five songs in, Devon slows it down with the sensual and sexy ‘You Know (I Want You)’ and ‘Holding On.’ The fourth single ‘Oh Love’ gets us back in the groove with this bouncy ode to love. The feelgood vibe continues with ‘I Promise and ‘Moving On,’ ending with two bonus remixes by Debonair Samir.
As a creative artist, Devon understands how important photos and music videos are when adding a visual layer to an artist’s career. Having worked with legendary photographer Timothy White (Whitney Houston, Jay Z) and famed director Chris Robinson (Beyonce, Usher) in the past, for this project he teamed up with the incredibly talented movie and video director, Alvin Gray, creating stunning videos for the first three singles from Morning Son. Also, working with photographers Roy Cox, Lolita Brailey, and Al Owen to create dynamic, artistic photographs.
As an indie artist, Devon Howard continues to push beyond the current commercial norms, bridging the gap between the old and the new. The upbeat soulful sounds of the 90’s layered over modern music tracks make ‘Morning Son’ feel fresh and edgy. Just in time for the spring, this project is a vibe from start to finish.
Album out on Digital Platforms March 5th.
