Soul Step Records Announces SSR-071!
Soul Step Records is proud to announce that we are partnering with our flagship artist, Matt Duncan, for a SEVENTH release through Soul Step Records. After successful releases, such as “Beacon,” “Free Music,” and “Soft Times,” we are bringing you two new tunes on a 45 single to be released on October 3rd.
Matt Duncan makes incredible R&B influenced indie pop that you and your parents both would love. Part Steely Dan and part Yacht rock. Matt has built an incredible grassroots fan base from his digital releases. His biggest track, “The Keys”, is clocking in with over 6 Million streams alone on Spotify. Clearly Matt Duncan’s music is touching a wide variety of people and making new fans everyday.
The A-Side of this 45 features a single dropped earlier called “Who Are You On Your Own.” As Christiania Bartolini from Indie Shuffle says, “If you were not aware that Matt Duncan is a modern musician, it would be easy to believe this track is decades old. Matt’s grasp of easy listening rock with tasteful chord progressions is certainly his specialty. The effortlessness of the song’s composition leaves you wanting more of where it came from. From the harmonic vocals to the funk filled bass and EPIC sax solo, this tracks is only the tip of the iceberg of what Matt Duncan has created.”
The B-Side features a brand new song called “State Bird.” This brand new track from Matt Duncan showcases a side of his production and songwriting that fans of “Free Music” will vibe with. Matt leans into some heavy synths to create something upbeat that is danceable, but is still something that you can put on your turntable and vibe out while listening to it.
Soul Step Records will be releasing Matt’s new 45 to Soul Step Record Subscribers on Saturday, October 3rd. The general public sale will begin on Monday, October 5th. “State Bird” will hit digital streaming services on Friday, October 2nd.
There will be a limited to 100 Hellfire Red vinyl variant in addition to the standard black vinyl. Soul Step Records highly encourages fans to sign up to be a Soul Step Subscriber for free, as many of our limited edition vinyl sell out very quickly.
