New Modern Soul 45 - Eric Scott - Peace Bomb / Reach Out For Me - LRK -11 LRK Records magazine cover

Some big news coming in for a new 7" vinyl on LRK Records in 2021...

LRK have signed a deal with Washington DC's modern soul sensation Eric Scott to put out his fantastic soulful song "Peace Bomb" which recently has been storming the UK soul charts backed with "Reach Out For me" on the B which is equally as good and soulful.

Both tracks are taken from Eric's new album which is titled "Peace Bomb" that was released back in Dec 2020.

“Peace Bomb” is a pleasant escape and reality-check at the same time. If we don’t wake up, we will leave a terrible world for future generations." - secondsocietyreport

"The song itself has an incredibly timeless quality in both its arrangement as well as lyricism: choosing to focus on principles of family, education, and imagination as the core ingredients of what constitutes a peace bomb." - alchemicalrecords

"This Soul/ jazz infused song is a finely musically arranged song that makes you feel so calm in an intense situation". -dropthespotlight.

As always this is a limited edition 7" vinyl, only 300 copies pressed and there is only 90 copies left so be quick before they totally sell out!

Official release date is set for: 30th September 2021 but LRK normally try and get them out a bit earlier.

Eric Scott is a Washington, DC based modern soul singer/songwriter.

Washington, DC's singer/songwriter and bassist, , is pure soulful goodness. He has toured internationally, sharing stages with the likes of B.B. King, Mavis Staples, Aaron Neville, REO Speedwagon, Roger Waters, and Deanna Bogart and you can hear why. There is a unique blend of clarity, kindness, and soul to his voice and phrasing that makes Eric the kind of artist you want to be around, as those qualities translate directly into the kind of person he is.

On his own he performs his own "evolving brand of funky, upbeat, socially aware" music that is, like him, immediately relatable. His songs, woven together by his recognizable signature sound, are diverse and rich, each with the element that make that magical "head nod - foot tap - hand slap" happen as you listen. His musicality is so on point, arrangements so smooth, and Eric's voice is like the cherry on top, crystal clear soul with just enough grit underneath to keep it real.

His latest album, Peace Bomb, comes out at the perfect time when our world needs peace and love more than ever.
