TAYLOR WILLIAMS

“Dreaming” is the first single from Colemine Records’ latest signing, Taylor Williams. Colemine fans will recognize his Neo-soul vocals from Patchwork Inc.’s jazz-funk 45, “Whatever Makes You Happy.” Williams builds on the momentum of this guest spot with his debut single, showcasing a Blood Orange-inspired falsetto.

A former member of North Carolina collective Black Haus, Williams carries the band’s adventurous spirit with him while reaching back into a soul catalog that speaks to his current path. “I wanted to put something out into the world that has that 70s feel...beautiful harmonies like Minnie Riperton, Isaac Hayes, and Marvin [Gaye],” says Williams.

Equal parts ethereal and earthy, “Dreaming” is the sound of an artist in ascension. Williams’ voice, like his talent, reaches escape velocity with this breezy low-rider jam.
