OKP Premiere: Destani Wolf Debuts Slow-Burning Ballad "Love Me Gently"

Destani Wolf first landed on our radar in the thick of 2014 with the Miguel Atwood-Ferguson touched single "Nothing But The Best," off her stunning Peek Away EP. Today we have the pleasure of bringing yet another one of her soul-soaked cuts to the world with the premiere of "Love Me Gently"; a gorgeous ballad that recalls some of Motown's greats with a velvety vox and flecks of warm synthesizers over a piano-led composition. And of course, Miss Wolf handles the vocal arrangements with expert care and power, leading a track that features some of her fellow westward soul-weavers, like producer Headnodic, KAT 010 and Mac MacVetty; all members of the heralded Crown City Rockers. You can listen to Destani Wolf's new non-album cut "Love Me Gently" below, just be sure to cop her impressive Peek Away EP on iTunes if your ears are as pleased as ours. Stay tuned for the latest from the LA soulstress as we continue to chart her ascent. And if you happen to be in the Bay Area, check out her live set Saturday night at Studio Grand with Victoria Theodore.
