Braxton Cook "Somewhere In Between" Saxophonist/Vocalist Jazz, R&B, Soul Hot, New Cutting Edge! Album Drop Date Jan. 31

For me, my sound and musical identity has always been in between the soul music that I grew up on and the jazz that I have studied and grown to love. So I wrote this song to say, that it's okay to be a little different. We should embrace our uniqueness and follow through with it. --Braxton Cook

About Braxton Cook

A 25-year-old with an old soul. Sunny personality, with homemade qualities, and a love of relationships between music passion, family and friends. Braxton's positivity acts as a way to create a message and theme in his music and overall brand.

“The concept behind this album is Love. I know that sounds cliché, but before jumping to conclusions, just know that this album is not the typical happy-go-lucky love story. This album is about my two, sometimes conflicting, loves: the lifelong love I have for music and the love for my girlfriend of 3 years. It's also about the struggles I have had trying to find the balance between the two. This battle to find balance between both relationships has played a pivotal role in making me who I am and my musical evolution. This album will feature both my saxophone as well as my vocal debut. I've decided to name this project “Somewhere in Between" because I so often times find myself caught in between my two loves and similarly between my two favorite styles of music, Jazz and RnB. I feel that we as people have to follow our own hearts and clear our own paths in life. This album is about trusting that intuition.

SOUNDS LIKE: Black American Music; laid back, mellow, soulful, honest, inspired by jazz, soul and R&B, singer-songwriters.

“I want people to be musically moved like John Coltrane. Moved by the music and spiritual experience."—Braxton Cook
