Often, "adult contemporary" feels more like "adult ancient," but there's no tired beatmaking or saccharine production in Whitney's debut disc. Instead, we hear husky soul vocals bring an earthiness to sharp synth beats and airy saxophone. It's all the mellow with none of the dull.
Angie Whitney's debut CD "That's What Love Is All About" is a delicate, yet powerful blend of sophisticated smooth jazz/ urban AC vocals and sultry saxophone, layered with perfect harmonies and strings. Like an expensive Merlot, it draws you in slow and easy with the tracks "Don't Tease Me Now" and "Love Me By Name" then finishes with the lighter upbeat "Sweet Love Affair." Angie Whitney began singing at an early age in church, and continued after high school touring with The Spinners.
