Col Gerrard crafts authentic, soul-infused music that reflects his life experiences. His debut, “Sun & Sky,” showcased a rich, mahogany vocal style influenced by legends like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. Working with GRAMMY-nominated producer Chris Potter, Gerrard embraces live studio performance over digital manipulation, prioritizing genuine musicianship and emotional depth in his songwriting.
From its opening moments, “The Way I Feel” by Col Gerrard establishes itself as a masterclass in emotional songwriting. The melancholic atmosphere is crafted with remarkable precision, built on a foundation of deliberate, slow-paced beats and evocative synth work that creates an immediate emotional connection. Col Gerrard’s vocal performance is the star of the show for me. The vocals truly elevate this track to something special – every note carries the weight of genuine pain and vulnerability.
