CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Joshua Robinson Recommends: A release date for Lucky Daye’s sophomore studio album CandyDrip has not yet been revealed, but one thing is for sure — the New Orleans native is hitting the road this spring in support of the forthcoming record. While listeners likely have their fingers crossed that CandyDrip will drop before Lucky Daye hits the city, the talented R&B artist still has plenty of music that he has yet to tour, including his 2021 Valentine’s Day duets EP Table For Two. The Atlanta stop of the CandyDrip Tour actually takes place the night after the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards, so if Lucky Daye ends up winning Best Traditional R&B Performance for “How Much Can A Heart Take” or Best Progressive R&B Album for Table For Two, concert attendees will be in for a celebratory evening like no other. The show is already sold out, but resell tickets are definitely worth it. — JR
From the venue:
He projects a widescreen vision of R&B. His full-spectrum view encompasses everything from the explosive funky bombast to the soulful croon of seventies favorites and the turn-of-the-century swagger inherent in mid-to-late nineties classics. As a result, he emerges with a signature sound of his own that stretches from soulfully smoked out to enigmatically energetic. Lucky has an unbelievable story from growing up in a cult, surviving Hurricane Katrina, making music in Atlanta, road-tripping across the country to Los Angeles, and finally linking up with producer and partner D’Mile to make Painted, Table For Two, and his upcoming 2nd full-length project.
