Progressive soul singer Otis Kane has unveiled his new album, Violet, will release Jan. 10, 2025, via Nettwerk Music Group.
Kane’s sophomore album will include the previously shared tracks “Morning Sun,” “Dance With You,” “Honey” and “Genius.”
“I’m thrilled to release my second album, Violet. Creating it has been a true joy and an incredible experience. These songs represent a real evolution for me, both as an artist and a person. The album is a journey through my musical influences, my most creative moments, and some of my happiest times,” says Kane.
“Most of this music was carefully crafted with my closest collaborators, D Mills and Peter Simon, alongside a few other very talented creatives who helped me push the boundaries of what I could imagine and create. The result is an album I’m incredibly proud of, and I can’t wait for the world to hear it!”
Violet will also include Kane’s new single “Scorpio,” a soul-invigorating track about embracing the present.
“So welcome to your life / Don’t let any moments / Ever pass you by / And boogie with me all night / And we can dance until the stars align / My scorpio baby,” he sings in the chorus.
Regarding his new song, Kane shares, “As a lifelong Scorpio, I’ve navigated the sign’s more challenging traits and learned that living fully in the moment is the best way to thrive. I believe that message resonates universally. For this track, I wanted to channel the soulful artists I grew up listening to, hoping to share the good energy and vibes I felt while creating it with everyone who hears it!”
Violet follows Kane’s 2021 debut album, Purple BLUE. “This album is truly a step into my world. Every song is a reflection of my life, all of the music a representation of my taste, and what moves me,” Kane explained about the latter project. “If you listen from top to bottom, you can feel how the music and the stories exist together like different scenes of the same movie. I had so much fun creating this body of work, and I’m so excited to share it with the world.”
Since his first LP, the Los Angeles-based singer has kept his fans engaged with consistent music releases. Last year, he dropped several tracks, including “Pieces,” “Smile,” and “Kaleidoscope,” among others.
