Genre: Soul/R&B
Hometown: Detroit, MI

When you hail from the Motor City with a grandmother who sang the blues, and a cousin who was one of the original Motown Temptations, music just kind of rests in your spirit and organically becomes who you are. Pianist, singer, songwriter and producer, Reggie Braxton has aptly honed such impactful melodious roots into his debut release, “The Brax-Tone Experience,” a luxurious jazz infused, heart caressing collection of original and timeless R&B singles.

His first release, a velvety cover of Erykah Badu’s “Next Lifetime,” is our invitation to a project simmering with warmth and seduction. “The Brax-Tone Experience” is the ambiance of low lights, flickering candles and chilled libations with Braxton perfectly poised to make his “Brax-Tone” the only tone for romance! Production credits boast none other than Detroit’s own silky, smooth serenader, J. Poww of UNV fame, alongside the Grammy nominated Chris “Buddaflywolf” Bivens, producer for Chris Brown, Tank and Kehlani, with engineering by another Detroit legend, the Grammy Award-winning Jezreel Santos, whose projects include soulful crooners Kem, Gregory Porter and Mali Music.

With Detroit heralded as the origin of some of the greatest love songs ever written, Braxton doesn’t disappoint, paying respectful tribute to his hometown legacy. “The Brax-Tone Experience” is a fully immersive soundscape of passion and desire. From unforgettable covers like Michael Franks’ “Lady Wants to Know” and Toto’s“Georgy Porgy” to original compositions like “Just Like You,” and “I Pray It’s You,” Braxton is serious about listeners surrendering to his melodic swag. "I Pray It’s You” is currently charting on the Billboard Jazz chart and his single “Love Guarantee” peaked at 39 on the MediaBase music charts.
