About the Artist
AN OLD SOUL IN BOTH THE LITERAL AND MUSICAL SENSE OF THE TERM, ORLANDO BASED SINGER/SONGWRITER DEREK STROKER COLLABORATES WITH A BATCH OF GREAT NASHVILLE SONGWRITERS ON HIS DYNAMIC LATEST ALBUM ‘LOVE & COLOUR’
Derek Stroker may have recently returned to Orlando after five years in Nashville, but the heart of Music City is beating strongly throughout his latest full length album Love & Colour – a powerful 11-track set of soul-infused pop/rock that blends a timeless old school sensibility with a contemporary flair and a unique perspective on the ups and downs of love in the modern world. Drawing from a classic well of inspirations ranging from Eric Clapton and The Beatles to Al Green, Donny Hathaway and modern greats James Morrison, John Legend and Gavin DeGraw. Stroker creates honest, straight from the heart music that takes the listener on what he calls “a journey of real love, with songs about the good times as well as the hard times.”
