SoulsSun expresses his artistic diversity as a songwriter, arranger, producer and vocal performer. A self taught pianist, he also plays saxophone, drums and percussion. Captivated by many R&B greats, some of his most impressionable influences include: Marvin Gaye, James Brown, Sly and The Family Stone, Parliament / Funkadelic, Rick James, Prince, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, John Legend and Kanye West to name a few. Although he has encountered many musicians who have helped him develop as an artist, he pays special homage to friends Nick Hawkins, Eugene "Beaver" Howard, Rudy Love, cousin "Lord" Byron Pyles and the Brown Brothers Mike and Harold Brown. As an artist, SoulsSun is very giving of his talent and time. He believes in the promoting and supporting of all independent artists. In his quest to live by his beliefs, SoulsSun has worked with local artists- Rapper B-Sick, the vocalist Jo Beng, the writer-poet Mo'Kha and Everett B. Walters as a member of their jazz group "CCB" (Colored Coated Brown). He has also had the privalege of sharing the stage with international recording artists Chaka Khan, The Temptations and Ali Woodson. He has more recently along with Mo'Kha, appeared with Jo Beng, opening for such acts as Al Green, Musiq Soulchild, Floetry and Erykah Badu. His discerning ear and attention to detail has given him the reputation of being contemplative, meticulous and gifted. His abstract outlook on life and outside the box thinking help to form his distinct and unique sound.
