New Music: MONTINA COOPER (@MontinaCooper) - Saved Me

MONTINA COOPER
SAVED ME




The Oscar winning movie '20 Feet From Stardom' showcased exactly what it's like to be a vocalist that has been in the shadows backing some of the biggest names in the music world. Someone that knows more about that than most is MONTINA COOPER.

Those in the BeyHive will be instantly familiar with the name but for the uninitiated, the St. Louis born, Houston raised singer is best known as one third of THE MAMAS long time backing vocalists for global superstar BEYONCE.

For over 10 years she has not only worked with Mrs. Carter but also MARY J BLIGE with Bey's fellow Destiny's Child KELLY ROWLAND.

But there comes a time for every singer to shine and head centre stage, and even while continuing an always busy tour schedule MONTINA found the time the record her debut solo album. The result is 'Closer' which she described as an collection of songs that "explores the pitfalls experienced in a relationship and takes you on a euphoric journey...with her story about love and sacrifice"


The lead track from the album is 'Saved Me', a soulful but almost folk infused, spiritual track which is clearly coming direct from the heart. Have a listen here




She recently took time out to record this stunning live acoustic performance for JET magazine highlighting her powerful vocals



Closer is available right now on ITunes & Amazon
