PR - ‘Love Crusade’

(FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE)

Hot off the heels of his last release, ‘Easy Street’ which dominated the national Smooth

Jazz charts and still holds strong today, Grammy-nominated, award-winning artist and

music producer, Sonix debuts ‘Love Crusade,’ a full-length LP featuring his best

works to date. With credits attributed to all-stars like David Bowie, Barry White, DMC,

and 50 Cent, Sonix’s soaring success has not gone unnoticed.

Love Crusade is a 12-track compilation of his most tastefully seductive Smooth Jazz cuts

to date, and an ode to bringing back peace into the world, even if only momentarily.

Reeling in influences from across the musical spectrum, including Jazz, RnB, Funk and

Fusion, Sonix’s music is a treat for those looking for an invigorating and modern

re-interpretation of Jazz.

It features many of his previous singles that have gone on to reach critical acclaim and

peak chart success, including the groovy, lounge jazz vibes of ‘Cloud 9,’ to his seminal

track ‘Easy Street’ that went on to place #1 on the Smoothjazz.com Listener

Countdown Chart four weeks in a row.

Features include Eric Marienthal (Chick Corea) and John “JR” Robinson (Michael

Jackson) on ‘Easy Street,’ with other notable performance credits attributed to Patrice

Isley and Jean Sandoval on Sonix’s captivating re-imagination of Sade’s ‘No Ordinary

Love.’ Brent Birckhead also makes an appearance on ‘Moonlight,’ and last but certainly

not least – Johnny “JTwo” Johnson lends his talents on ‘Love Song’ and ‘Take Flight.’

“Love Crusade could very well have been named ‘Love Revival’. As a child, I went from city to city, state to

state with my parents and my uncles running church revivals all over the east coast from Boston to Miami.

My heart's desire is to take my music around the world to bring joy, laughter and a smile, just to brighten up

someone's day. Love Crusade is my mission to spread love worldwide with my music.”

- Sonix

Love Crusade makes its premiere on September 9th, 2022, and will be released on the

imprint, ‘Nucleus Entertainment.’ It will be made available to stream and purchase across

all major platforms. For media inquiries, including interviews and all things press-related,

“During the pandemic, hate seemed to be at an all-time high, and there seemed to be a loss of care for our

fellow man. It hit me so hard to my heart and to my core that I wanted to be able to give the world a hug, to

put a smile on someone's face, bring someone some joy, a sense of peace, even if it were for a moment.

That's my purpose, and that's my mission. To spread love throughout the world with music.”
