Soaring to new heights with genre-blending refinement, Ken Paolo’s latest single plays with various textures of RnB, funk soul to create a rewarding listen. The 5-piece band from Boorloo find confidence with their fourth single, and showcase their jazz-laden grooves and stunning vocal acrobatics.
After bursting onto the scene in 2021, the 5-piece band has launched into the hearts of music lovers and gained instant momentum. They’ve carved out a dedicated fan base with their incomparable live shows. Their genre-blurring mix of R&B, indie, electronica, pop and soul have made them “one of the state’s go-to live favourites” Pilerats.
Fronted by lead singer Ken Paolo, with the band - Cass on bass, Bob on keys, Kuda on drums and Persia on vocals, the band teamed up with up with Sam Ford (DICE, Siobhan Cotchin, Supathick) at Tone City Recording Studio for Mixing and Mastering. Fans of Kaiit, Ngaiire, and Jordan Rakei will find a new favourite in Ken Paolo.
Lyrically, ‘Natural Ways’ sees Ken Paolo more introspective than before, musing on the nuanced experience of love and loss and the ever morphing dynamics of relationships. This single is pulled from their forthcoming debut EP, a delightful taste of what's to come. Frontman Ken Paolo explained, “‘Natural Ways’ is a high-energy affirmation about moving on from toxic situations. It is our most ambitious track with an addiction of a horn section.”
This anticipated release follows up three previous singles '$4 Pizza', 'Heads at a Hundred' and the groovy ToneCity Recording-produced 'Dance With A Broken Heart', which received strong community radio support and DSP editorial playlisting. Each previous single was added to Perth’s tastemaker station RTR FM’s esteemed sound selection alongside support from triple j, triple j Unearthed and 4ZZZ.
