Ragan Whiteside - Evolve

Fusing together the coolest elements of contemporary jazz, neo-soul, and funk, flutist Ragan Whiteside debuts her brand new album Evolve. Ronald Jackson of the SmoothJazzRide says, "Here with her sophomore release Evolve, she continues her self-assured strut with an R&B/smooth jazz mix of tunes that beckons you to dance along with and follow her down the path she's taking here. Getting a little help from the likes of keyboardist Bob Baldwin, guitarist Chieli Minucci, saxman Marion Meadows, vocalist Porter Carroll Jr., and solid material, Whiteside comes prepared to convince and convince she does.
