Today’s feature Album is Soul Groove by up-and-coming Sax player Kyle Woolverton. Originally from Seattle he relocated to LA and has become an in-demand session musician, backing up some of the industry’s biggest names.
He is also an example of persistance and belief in yourself paying off. This album was actually released in 2008 and didn’t catch on immediately but has hung in for the long run with one song climbing the charts in ‘09 and another currently in the top 20 in early 2010.
