Ricky Jones
The
traditional line of R&B love men is a long and distinguished one.
Many are led to believe they have the calling, but few live up to the
standard. One man who has put in the time, preparation and inspiration to
carry the torch is Ricky Jones.
The
versatile singer, songwriter, producer/performer is working on an astoundingly
well-rounded soul album, thoroughly living up to his newly acquired nickname,
"The King of Hearts".
Mr.
Jones puts his expertise on the female heart, soul and libido into sensual
motion on blazing new songs such as "Your Everything" (reminiscent of
Prince's Adore), "Crazy", "I Want U", "Oh Girl"
and the dreamy "Angel". Ricky is striving to successfully
capture 360 degrees of soul music including party tracks (the club jam
"The Next Round"), plus fast and slow versions of the mood-maker
"The Only One" - the latter of which proves he studied his Ronald
Isley lessons well. The album will be introduced by a true heat seeker
"She's Got a Man" (a sizzling story about the prospect of beautiful
couple finding it hard to control their desire for one another
while still committed to another relationship. The song
features incredible performances from Crooked I
and Kanary Diamonds. And "I'm Ready" (a deeply
romantic ballad on which Ricky professes his preparedness to
lock his lady down and make her his wife).
What
really sets Ricky apart though is his absolute domination of the
stage. He is a virtual force to be reckoned with, utilizing not only an
amazing array of vocal gymnastics but an unmatched charm and charisma to
which his audience immediately connects. His ability to
improvise only enhances the experience and truly makes his performance
unique. To promote this current album, Ricky will be touring
with a full band, including rhythm section, horns, and three
incredible back ground vocalists. He performs all over the
country and at some of the hottest spots in the L.A. area - The
Rhythm Lounge, Santa Monica 3rd Street Promenade acclaimed nightspot,
Samba in Redondo Beach, Platinum Life, Monsoon, Beverly Hills Aqua Lounge and
the famous Stevie's Creole Cafe & Bar, just to name a few.
Release
was produced by some of the industry's hottest producers, including Keith Andes
(Diana Ross, Babyface and Toni Braxton), Kirv (Dr. Dre and 50 Cent), Mike Cee
(Kindred and Jennifer Lopez), Laythan Armor (Barry White and bobby
"Blue" Bland), Khris Kellow (Ginuwine, Patti LaBelle and Christina
Aguilera), Ervin Pope (Jay-Z, Janet Jackson and Kanye West) and Boom-Batt
Productions (Jazmine).
