Be The Love You Want [CD], Southern Avenue, CD

Memphis soul powerhouse Southern Avenue release their third full-length album. Be the Love You Want was produced by multi-Grammyr winner, Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Deer Tick, Susan Tedeschi, Jackie Greene), and co-produced by Ori Naftaly. Be the Love You Want is Southern Avenue's most ingenious and personal effort thus far. Since their inception, the band has produced a wide-ranging collection of original music - predominantly co-written by Israeli-born guitarist Ori Naftaly and powerhouse lead vocalist Tierinii Jackson - that links them to their home city's glorious past while at the same time, demonstrates their ambitious intent to evolve Memphis music to contemporary effect.
