For over 20 years, Grammy®-nominated keyboardist Jeff Lorber has given us some of the most forward-thinking and best-selling contemporary jazz.

In 1994, Lorber joined forces with guitarist Marlon McClain and bassist Nathaniel Phillips as Shades of Soul to record music together.

Over time, the group was joined by guests Chris Botti, Hidden Beach icon Terry Stanton, and the unforgettable saxman Art Porter for one of the last recordings before his untimely death. Streetwise and funky, the session bucked the too-smooth jazz of the '90s and proved way ahead of its time.

Fast forward nearly ten years and the time is finally right to release the debut of Shades of Soul's earthy, urban grooves.
