After 40 years as a performer, composer, performer and multi-instrumentalist (vocals, drums, piano, keyboards) Charles Thompson draws from his funk/R&B and gospel roots in creating his catchy, eminently grooving and sonically inventive synth and piano driven genre debut IT’S MY TIME / Smooth Jazz Vibrations 1. Working with a variety of rhythmic bass and percussive foundations, Charles tops his infectious melodies off with colorful horn riffs and trippy harmonic vibes while conveying an overall sense of divine inspiration and encouragement.
