Saxophone legend Kirk Whalum is set to captivate audiences with his latest project, “Epic Cool,” an electrifying collection of original grooves that showcase his unparalleled talent and creativity. Teaming up with renowned producer Greg Manning—known for his work with artists like Keb’ Mo’ and Herb Alpert, and a two-time GRAMMY® nominee with 10 #1 Billboard hits to his credit—Whalum has crafted an album that is both passionate and spirited on a monumental scale, while maintaining his signature soul.
From the danceable hit “Bah-De-Yah!” to the melodic and sultry “Pillow Talk” (which Whalum describes as the strongest song he’s written in 20 years), “Epic Cool” weaves a musical story that appeals to a wide, cross-genre audience. Each track is a testament to Whalum’s mastery and his ability to blend different musical elements seamlessly.
