One Half Of Multi Platinum Selling R&B Duo Zhane RENEE NEUFVILLE Releases Classy New Single "WATCHING ME"
|
Posted By: LaMarr Blackmon on November 12, 2015 Renee Neufville Classy New Single "Watching Me" Available At ITunes@RENEENEUFVILLE Renee’s music knows no boundaries and her resume boasts Top 5 hit records as one half ofthe iconic group ZHANE and world tours as keyboardist/ vocalist in Roy Hargrove’s funky jazz unit, RH FACTOR. RH Factor has stormed through every major International jazz festival from Montreal to the North Seas to Monterey with stops everywhere from Russia and Lithuania to the Hollywood Bowl and New York’s famed Apollo Theatre.It seems like just yesterday that the fresh melodies and rhythms of ZHANE were joyfully blasting out of every radio and onto every dance floor in America. Hits like “Hey, Mr. D.J.”, “Groove Thang” and “Sending My Love” rocketed up the charts as the duo built a loyal following through television appearances and tours with contemporaries such as Maxwell.After two platinum albums it was time to move on. Unaffected by industry pressures to rush a solo career; Renee took the time to raise the bar. In 2000, she hosted “88 Soul”, a series of live internet webcasts where her guests included Jill Scott, Carl Thomas, Kelis and Joe. Meanwhile, she contributed to albums and videos by India Arie, Will Downing, Heather Headley, Leela James, Aaliyah, Kardinal Official and Kindred. And all the while, Renee continued to write….and write and write. At this time, RENEE organized her first band, sat at the keyboards with a mic and began a quiet series of club shows with every performance Renee’s devoted fan base continued transforming Zhane fans into Renee Neufville fans – going so far as to learn, remember and even sing-along to new material that hadn’t even been recorded! Friends like India Arie, John Legend and jazz phenom Robert Glasper could be seen cheering her on. Never one to sit idle, Renee is busily writing what will be her debut solo album while continuing the occasional performance with her own groups. A recent such appearance at New York’s influential Jazz Gallery was packed to the rafters. A champion of all forms of LIVE music, Renee’s new work is infused with her experiences in the r&b, pop, jazz and Dance hall worlds (lest we forget this Brooklynite’s heart and soul has never strayed far from her native Jamaica). BUT those categories are for the rest of us – for Renee Neufville it’s simply about MUSIC - the songs she writes, the melodies she plays, the bands she leads and the lyrics her exceptional voice caresses.
