V. Shayne Frederick’s new “Return To Paradise” is his most expansive song to date

Pianist and singer-songwriter V. Shayne Frederick has a sound rooted in jazz, soul, and classic balladry, and his latest song finds him stretching his expansive influences farther than ever.

Released just ahead of the holidays, “Return to Paradise” is a slow burner that builds and blooms, layering mellifluous vocal harmonies and lushly-arranged horns over a swift and radiant groove that has a cosmic edge to it.

“Come with me and find your peace of mind,” Frederick entreats, just before launching into a sweeping piano solo where notes sparkle and float in the heady atmosphere.
