Rising star Anderson East kicks off the July edition of Trail Mix with “Satisfy Me.”
Rolling Stone Country calls R&B crooner Anderson East one of “20 Reasons To Love This Year.” His voice draws comparisons with the legendary Sam Cooke, and Paste calls his debut record “damned near perfect.”
That’s high praise for this Alabama native with the folkster scruff and the Bill Withers baritone.
Like Leon Bridges, The Suffers, and fellow Alabama boys St. Paul & The Broken Bones, East is poised to build on the recent resurgence of vintage R&B. His debut record, Delilah, is set to release on July 10th and it is the first record on Dave Cobb’s (noted producer of Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton, and Jason Isbell) Low Country Sound imprint. Recently, East has been spending time on the road with Sturgill Simpson, Brandi Carlisle, John Butler Trio, and The Lone Bellow.
Give him time, folks, and his name won’t be second on the marquee much longer.
