“Not since the progressive, melodious tunes of Atlanta's own Arrested Development has there been a group whose album proves to be so uplifting for the listener” – Rolling Out Magazine.
There is a smoldering fire in Atlanta and its name is Water Seed. Water Seed is a band dedicated to recreating the true American soul/funk band. In the tradition of Maze, Rufus and Chaka, and Earth Wind and Fire, Water Seed has the marketability to open the doors to a sound that everyone will soon be after.
“….great, good mellow, soulful music, and real music to with excellent production and musicianship……. New Orleans neo funk and soul is what it is - great stuff”
- Life and Soul(lifeandsoulreviews.blogspot.com)
Fueled by the momentum of their latest release “Early for the Future”, this co-ed ensemble possesses a brotherly and sisterly love that vibrates through each and every one of their songs. They have been referred to as "A band that represents harmony in a way that most bands try to achieve", and the band to keep an eye on". Water Seed has a live show like no other. You can take the musician out of New Orleans, but you can't take New Orleans out of the musician. It is no wonder this band is always in high demand. There has never been a show performed by Water Seed without the band breaking into those New Orleans street beats that we all love. Crowds can't get enough of Water Seed's live energy.
“In this era of Pro Tools and singers who enhance their vocals….It's so good to hear a real band playing real music these days…..Water Seed is a band that is so hot, four cities -- New Orleans, Atlanta, DC and Baltimore all claim it as their own” – Soultracks.com
"Similar to a less produced more tangible Mariah Carey, Water Seed brings forth their own uniqueness and approach dynamical jazz influenced pop songs."- Damon Kellard at Bryan Farrish Radio Promotion
“From the first notes of this 9 track album, you can feel that Water Seed represent that lovely "feel good" vibe. If Early for the Future is 'just' an introduction of what's happening in the studio right now, I can't wait to check out their next album.” - Jazz and Soul(www.jazzandsoul.eu)

Water Seed ... :o) Hope all is good wit ya. Been crazy busy here.. and getting the award for Brevard County/321's Hottest R&B Artist is just the BEGINNING for me... Remember.. the sky ISN'T the limit... cause the universe is ENDLESS!!! Keep doing ya thang aight...Grind HARD...do YOU... no matter what.. Keep yo head up!
yeah for sho' and i also think that with balance like you said would make it better for the new and upcoming artist trying to get exposed ya dig..because now alot of people think you have to make it first with a hit and then to sell more albums you got to have a beef..but the real benefit of both is reputation..now which is better and artist that really has talent or an artist who's talent is talking crap?
Hey yourself Globetrotter. I'm no stranger. I'm always around. So how was your trip? I want the new cd. I hope all is well. Hope to catch the band next time you are in town. You got my number lol.
