October London Releases His Second
Single 'A Beautiful Woman' (Los
Angeles, CA) - October London releases the second single
off of his forthcoming LP, "A Beautiful Woman" (Death Row). The singer-songwriter has a knack for
turning the mundane into the memorable, wielding a powerful voice that leaves his imprint of intimate care on every second
of the song. "A
Beautiful Woman" arrives in the midst of London's cross-country trek in support of "The Serenade 2024 North American
Tour" with 3X Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist Maxwell and 2X Grammy-winning R&B powerhouse Jazmine
Sullivan. The single separates him from the pack and sets the tone for his hotly anticipated sophomore album, "October
Nights," due October 11, 2024. London saw
his first major career breakthrough in 2023 when he unleashed his critically acclaimed debut album, "The Rebirth Of Marvin,"
featuring two No. 1 singles - "Mulholland Drive" with Snoop Dogg & Latoiya Williams, and "Back to Your
Place" - both of which spent consecutive weeks on Billboard's Adult R&B Airplay chart. "A Beautiful Woman" follows the swooning "She Keeps Calling,"
which received press praise from publications such as BET, ESSENCE, Rated R&B, and YouKnowIGotSoul to name a few. October
Nights, now available for pre-save/order, is primed for widespread acclaim and features Snoop Dogg, Tyrese, Boney James, and
Ledisi. The album also boasts contributions from Priest "Soopafly" Brooks, of the West Coast hip-hop collective
Tha Dogg Pound (DPGC), Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Brandon "BAM" Hodge & David Foster, and Karl Rubin,
among others. October London is the first R&B
artist signed to the relaunched Death Row. # # # (Source:

music and the open road as a free-spirited teenager," shares Trey. "I'm incredibly excited to be releasing this
song from my upcoming album, ‘Wanted Man.' I hope it resonates with y'all the way it does with me. Also a huge thanks
to RFD for premiering it!" "Backroad
Believer" is being released in a year marked by significant milestones for Calloway, including over 1 million additional
streams on Spotify and features on CMT. He has also secured 2023 Country Song of the Year titles from both the Texas Country
Music Awards and the Josie Music Awards, as well as Gospel Song of the Year recognition from the Carolina Country Music Association. Calloway has consistently been paving the way for his album release

R&B/Jazz Saxophonist
Jason Jackson is 'Looking Up' On His Third Clection Produced by Billboard Hitmaker Adam Hawley
(Cheseapeake, VA) - Jason Jackson
concludes ten-years military cservice and is now set to release his third recording project "Looking Up"
on October 25, 2024. It is his first project for the MBF Entertainment label. The R&B/Jazz saxophonist is fervently energized by his upward trajectory, a feeling
that permeates the nine new songs that he wrote with his producer, 16-time Billboard chart-topper Adam Hawley. Jackson hit the Billboard Top 20 in 2021, two months after he completed
his Navy service. Each project he released has taken him another step up in the soul-jazz marketplace. As Jackson steadily
raises his profile, one constant force has been Hawley. "Looking Up" continues their fruitful creative partnership.
In addition to producing and playing multiple instruments (guitar, keyboards, and programming) on the album and cowriting
the material, Hawley signed Jackson to his MBF Entertainment imprint. Jackson's debut single, "All The Way," featured Vaughn's rubbery basslines and the two
reconnect to open "Looking Up" with the uber funky and fun "Bump," which was cowritten by keyboardist
Judah Sealy. Keyboardist Caleb Middleton cowrote four songs with Jackson and Hawley for the album, the first of which is "Intentional,"
a deliberate midtempo groove. Braun, a seminal figure in the genre who has notched 30 Billboard No. 1 singles, features on
"Upside Down," the next single that will be going for playlist adds on September 23. Two-time Grammy-winning bassist Mel Brown and drummer Eric Valentine dispense the
beats and rhythms on "With The Get Down" on which Jackson's sweaty sax gets way down. "Stay Awhile" pleads
its case via an inviting soul-pop melody simmering atop a cozy R&B groove. Earlier this year while still in the studio, Jackson previewed the album with the single "Daybreak,"
which features a collaboration with another genre stalwart, Special EFX guitarist Minucci, who illumines the vibrant track
with gorgeous nylon guitar light, forming a striking combo with the saxophonist's emotional soprano horn. Keyboardist Carnell Harrell cowrote two tunes for the album, that include
the robust R&B "Rewind," on which Jackson lets loose some fierce alto saxophone play. "Silver" is
a bouncy, head-bobbing flashback with its old-school go-go beat breakdown etched by bassist Dwayne "Smitty" Smith
and Valentine's drums. "Looking Up"
concludes with a look back. Jackson spotlights R&B vocalist L Young to pay homage to the legendary Luther Vandross by
putting their own spin on "Take You Out Tonight." They break down the track to an intimate acoustic groove augmented
by expressive soprano sax, Hawley's guitar, Ian Martin's bass and Ramon Yslas's percussion. October 20th at the Myrtle Beach Jazz Festival he will be performing. After the
album releases, Jackson will hit the stage on November 6th with guitarist JJ Sansaverino at Jazz Legacy in Hampton, VA. Jackson was a teenager studying under the tutelage of James Brown's
longtime saxophonist Leroy Harper Jr. when he opened for Brian McKnight, Morris Day and the Time, KC and the Sunshine Band,
and Michael McDonald. He went on to perform all over the world as a member of the Navy's band, taking the stage in international
locales such as China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Australia, and Japan. Three years ago, shortly before exiting
the Navy, Jackson sent a demo recording to Hawley. # # #
