LOS ANGELES – Keeping his impeccable groove going, contemporary urban jazz bassist Mitchell Coleman (www.mitchellcolemanjr.com) is quickly emerging as an indie force to be reckoned with, becoming one of the top sellers on CD Baby with his critically-acclaimed full-length debut Soul Searching and making an impact at radio with his new single “Flow.”

Now being spun on more than 60 U.S. and international terrestrial and internet outlets, the infectious track recently made its debut at #40 with a bullet on the Mediabase Smooth A/C Chart and is holding steady at #25 on the SmoothJazz.com Radar Chart, ahead of such bestselling albums as Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga’s Cheek To Cheek and sharing chart space with smooth jazz stars Eric Darius, Nathan East, Brian Simpson and Marion Meadows. “Flow” is also #1 at WNWV-FM 107.3 “The Wave” in Cleveland, Ohio.

In addition to terrestrial stations everywhere from Springfield, Mass. and Montgomery, Alabama to Little Rock, Cleveland and Nashville, Coleman’s tracks have been featured on prominent online outlets, including The Smooth Jazz Ride, Smooth Grooves Radio/UK, CJazzChannel.com and the Phase Radio Show in Australia.

Soul Searching continues to receive rave reviews from prominent online platforms.

Opening with ‘Flow,’ a groovin’ funky slap bass track with Coleman laying it down and Michael Bolivar hitting the sax with sweet soul.”

Coleman has an upcoming interview with Big Blend Radio & Magazine on March 22 at approximately 11:40am PT. Fans can tune in via the following link that day: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/big-blend-radio/2015/03/22/music-travel-summer-camps-writing-book-marketing

AND SCORES BIG ON MAJOR RADIO CHARTS

WITH HIS TWO SINGLES, ‘PASSPORT’ AND ‘FLOW’

The L.A.-Based Composer/Musician Is Scoring

Airplay On More Than 30 U.S. and International Terrestrial

And Internet Outlets

LOS ANGELES – Proving that contemporary urban jazz is all about the groove these days, funk-driven emerging indie artist Mitchell Coleman, Jr. (www.mitchellcolemanjr.com) is creating the instrumental sound of 2015.

More than 30 U.S. and international terrestrial and internet outlets are currently playing “Passport” and his latest single “Flow” from his critically-acclaimed debut album Soul Searching.

“Passport” is currently at #39 on the Mediabase Smooth A/C Chart and has risen to #41 on the Radio Wave Internet Airplay Chart. The high energy “Flow,” helmed by veteran Motown producer Michael B. Sutton, is also at #25 on the tastemaker SmoothJazz.com Radar chart.

In addition to terrestrial stations everywhere from Springfield, Mass. and Cleveland, Ohio to Little Rock, Winston-Salem N.C. and Colorado Springs, Coleman’s tracks have been featured on prominent online outlets, including BluesJazzRadio.com, JazzNet247, TheSource.com and the Phase Radio Show in Australia.

Soul Searching has received rave reviews from two of the genre’s most revered online platforms, SmoothJazz.com (www.smoothjazz.com) and The SmoothJazzRide (www.thesmoothjazzride.com). SmoothJazz.com makes note of Coleman’s “tasty, infectious urban jazz and funk grooves,” adding that the bassist stamps a “fun and fiery Passport to a place filled with buoyant R&B/jazz fusion.”

Ronald Jackson of The Smooth Jazz Ride says that the collection “is sure to stop many a bass lovin’ jazz aficionado dead in his or her tracks as they check out this groovemaker.” He adds, “With help from the likes of guitarist Kayta Matsuno (Natalie Cole, David Foster) and veteran vocalists Pam and Joyce Vincent (formerly of Tony Orlando and Dawn), Coleman lays down a thick and airtight foundation from which down & dirty funk grooves like his ‘Flow,’ ‘Overload,’ ‘Déjà Vu,’ and ‘Genesis’ sprout and join up with tracks like the cool and smooth mid-tempo ‘Come Up’ (which features some great jazzy work on the ivories from onetime Miles Davis/Alanis Morrisette pianist Deron Johnson) and the high steppin’ ‘Just One More Hit’ featuring guitarist Sean Fabian delivering some hot riffs. There is no questioning whether or not this bassist knows the path to groovalicious.”
