With the rise of AI-assisted music technology, artists have taken the reins and raised the ante with the infusion of latent skill with forward-thinking music arrangements. In this vein, we got to hear of Corey Fitzgerald, whose blend of retro-funk/soul and R&B sounds is setting him apart from the rest of the pack. His latest releases are two songs, “Fitzgerald-Shoals Flow” and “By Your Name,” that showcase the power of AI technology with traditional music styles steeped in Southern roots.

“Fitzgerald- Shoals Flow ” is the first cut that sets the tone with its layered funk/R&B overtones. From the smooth melodic runs that echo 80s R&B vibes with modern contemporary soul. The track serves as a statement to the fact that music is evolving, but audiences can be assured that the traditions will always be honoured.

The second track, “By Your Name” is a laidback reflective ballad that fuses classic R&B stylings with a vintage Gospel undertone. From the lush guitar licks, warm keys, soft rhyms and sublime vocal runs, the singer delivers a heartfelt piece about faith and God’s will.
