“Wynter’s vocals provide much of that soul. They are inviting and upbeat yet they contain a soupcon of grit, an underlying gravitas that brings the band’s jazzy/psychedelic/shoegaze/R&B explorations down to earth.”
“Recorded in February during a show at Wynter’s homebase at the Evening Muse in Charlotte, ”From Orbit,” sets the stage for a trajectory amongst soul and stars–tied to earth through Wynter’s trademark violin strings — accented by a cast of seasoned players, sentimental musings, and a slanted ear toward rock’n’roll.”
Hailing from Charlotte, classically trained violinist and songwriter Emanuel Wynter is taking ears and stages by storm with a distinctive sound and a lively, high-spirited stage presence that is infectious to everyone in the room. Taking influence from artists such as Anthony Hamilton, Leon Bridges, and Gary Clark Jr., Emanuel’s sound is a unique, vibrant, and expressive blend of R&B and Rock that manages to be raw in emotion and refined, sonically. He finds a way to sing, not only through rich and soulful vocals, but through his electrifying violin playing that is, at times, quite reminiscent of electric guitar. With dynamic musicianship and sincere lyricism, Emanuel Wynter is sure to leave you with a memorable performance that will make you want more.
“The Charlotte artist has cool confident vocals, hitting both notes and feels, as heard on his recent live album recorded last February at The Evening Muse.
In addition to singing, Wynter also takes up the electric violin in a style you’d never hear in a classical concert.”
