This Saturday, June 4, Zach Longoria Project releases its second album, “Up Up & Away” with a release show at Headliners. [4] You can find their 2014 EP here. [5]
The 9-piece group, which formed in 2013 mixes jazz and old-school R&B to create what they’ve coined “Kentucky Fried Soul.” Upbeat bass lines, saxophone, bright trumpet solos and the complimentary vocals of Zach Longoria and Gina C make for a dynamic album with tracks that explore a wide range of sounds and genres.
The title track, “Up Up & Away” begins in dulcet tones, moving into an electric finish. From there, the album is an exploration, dipping into a little disco in “Dance Til’ You Die” and offering upbeat love songs like “With You” and “Shelter.”
The album ends with a big, brassy finish with “Your Love Keeps Lifting Me (Higher and Higher),” an impassioned testament to love and devotion.
You can preorder "Up Up & Away" here, [6]or pick up a copy at the album release show this weekend.
