Jennifer Budd – The Colonel
Hamilton-based musician Jennifer Budd released the first single “Don’t Even” from her upcoming album Lip Service a month ago, introducing listeners to her powerful vocal abilities and soul-pop charm.
As November 13th inches closer, Budd has released her latest track “The Colonel”, which as she explains was heavily influenced during her university years in Nashville:
“My focus for “The Colonel” was merely based on story. You can read the same story a million times and derive a different antidote each read. I wanted listeners to try to piece together the four-character (Winston, Sarah, the Colonel, and the narrator) story from all angles, perspectives, and motives, and try to approach each character with understanding. My time spent…in Nashville and with my new producer Michael Keire made this project possible. It reinforced my groundings in folk music while expanding my interest in neo-soul & R&B.”

With sharp percussion planting the foundation, Budd’s dramatic singing style blends beautifully with the swelling horns and the song’s R&B personality.
