Crushed Velvet & The Velveteers drop 2nd taste from new album
Crushed Velvet & the Velveteers is the alter ego of US multi-instrumentalist and producer Alan Evans (Soulive / Ae3) who is back with another taste from his upcoming full-length on Vintage League Music with new single “As Far As We Know feat. Brother GoodLove”.
“As Far As We Know” is a soul song dripping with emotion and power on which Evans plays bass, drums and guitar: “I originally wrote the music back in May 2019 with another VLM project in mind, but I knew I wanted to have Stephane (Brother GoodLove) singing on it from the beginning”, he states.“The original working title for the song was “Az Far As We Know” as a nod to Aztec Sun. I didn’t realize that Stephane would turn that into such beautiful and powerful lyrics”.
Born in Montreal to Cameroonian parents, Brother GoodLove was raised in a multicultural household and community where music featured prominently. Now residing in Washington D.C, he draws from a wide palette of musical traditions, from African-American to African, Caribbean, Latin American and European. His music is an exploration of his identity and sense of self, an expression of his personal views, a reflection on the world around him and a contribution to the future he believes in.
“As Far As We Know feat. Brother GoodLove” is the second single to be released from Crushed Velvet & The Velveteers upcoming album, and follows up from first single “Good Thang feat. Kim Dawson” released in June.
“As Far As We Know” out Digitally on July 17th via Vintage League Music
