(December 22, 2023) We've been following the career of talented singer and songwriter Joe Leavy for a decade, and it just seems to keep getting better. Joe's jazzy soulful recordings have been hits with SoulTrackers, and this year he was a two-time SoulTracks Readers' Choice Awards nominee.
On his latest single, Joe delivers a song that reminds of how precious our relationships are -- especially as we approach the holidays. Inspired by the recent loss of four of Joe's family members, "One More Day" simply asks for the most important of Christmas gifts: time together with the ones we love.
Joe Leavy is in fine voice on the midtempo, and the backing team of Ivan Johnson on keys, Tim Bailey on bass, Andrew Freeman on guitar and Steve Allianz on sax provide a jazzy, tasteful soundtrack. It is a song that provides both timely perspective and a sonic groove.
