Vocalist Shayna Steele serves up a treat with a full stream of her forthcoming Rise LP just one day ahead of the project's release via Ropeadope Records. Steele's sophomore project follows her earth-shattering performance on Snarky Puppy's The Family Dinner Vol. 1 LP. The highly-anticipated project packs in an all-star lineup of musicians led by Christian McBride, Marcus Miller, Robert Randolph and David Cook. Billed as "hard-rocking" and "reflective", the project is an emotionally dense journey through Steele's range, versatility and varied influences - from jazz to gospel, soul and folk - that encapsulates all of the possibility brimming from the American musical canon according to the highs and lows of her powerhouse vocal. Check the tracks below to stream the Rise LP. Pre-order the project via Bandcamp. Scroll down to check out the project's personnel.
