We say

Brimming with swagger and soul, 'Skin In The Game' is the latest release from UK soul talent Conner Reeves. Dropped earlier this month as part of a double A-side with 'Tell These Arms', it offers a compelling taste of his long-awaited second album 'Ten Thousand Days and The Church of the Restoration' - out today, 27 years on from his acclaimed debut 'Earthbound'. With his signature gravel-and-honey vocals, 'Skin In The Game' is a funk-driven statement of intent, shaped by the hard-won lessons of a life fully lived. Reeves’ journey back has been remarkable – once a Top of the Pops regular, Whitney Houston support act and songwriter for James Morrison, Joss Stone and Artful Dodger, he stepped away from the spotlight for nearly three decades to overcome personal battles far from the stage. The comeback is already turning heads, with support from Radio 2, BBC London, Jazz FM, Solar Radio and glowing reviews from Echoes Magazine, Blues & Soul, Soul Tracks and more. Contemporary soul with timeless heart, Reeves is back to enthral both loyal fans and a new generation of listeners.
