(i am) isis wants to empower you. Their latest single, the groove-laced “Get Free,” is a fresh anthem to carry you through the New Year and build momentum in advance of their 2013 EP series, amazingly random.
“Get Free’s” high energy and uptempo is a sonic departure from its bluesy predecessor, “I Saw You”, which focused heavily on isis’ spoken word roots and won them the 2012 National Poetry Awards’ Single of the Year prize. The inspirational track demonstrates (i am) isis’ acute ability to traverse between driving rock ballads and funk-laced blues, while capitalizing on their eclectic fusion of rock and spoken soul sound.
“(i am) isis compels your soul to open up and receive [their] message of freedom, while hitting you with funky, pop-rock-R&B rhythms,” said Datwon Thomas, executive editor of VIBE Magazine. “[Their] mesh of style and sound overwhelms and embraces at the same time. isis is sure to save some sinners with her level of talent.”
Formed and fronted by spoken soul-phenom isis, the five-piece crew’s edgy brand of soulful truth has positioned them to thrive within the music and entertainment industries. The band’s members include bassist Mike “The Doc” Koltosky, drummer Manny Mav, guitarist Diamond Dave, and keyboardist Isaac Childs who bring her crazy, color-filled melodies to life on stage.
“Get Free” is now available for purchase on all major digital outlets, including iTunes, Amazon and Spotify Tuesday, October 30. In light of Hurricane Sandy, all proceeds from the sale of the single will go towards recovery efforts.
