When the muses of the smooth jazz world were passing out inspiration, they must have given pianist/composer Kevin Toney a double dose! It truly takes a special talent to combine jazz with radio-friendly melodies and sensual elegance with head-nodding funk, but Kevin Toney manages it with ease. He's been doing it ever since his early days with groundbreaking jazz-fusion GROUP The Blackbyrds, before launching his solo career. It certainly is no surprise that as a solo artist Kevin’s recordings have found a home on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz charts, as well as Radio and Records "Smooth Jazz" charts. As one of today’s premier keyboardists/composers, and an accomplished arranger and producer, he brings his unique brand of genius to any project. On SWEET SPOT, Kevin's third Shanachie release and sixth solo album overall, he takes this mix to a new level. As Urban Network critic Scott Galloway wrote: "Kevin Toney's touch on the piano is divine, soulful and hypnotic." |
