Ewing Samuels Unveils His Latest Musical Masterpiece: Velvet Room Sessions: Iconic Piano Jazz, Vol. I
Toledo, Belize — May 12, 2025 — Renowned music creator, producer, and visionary Ewing Redmond Samuels III has announced the official release of his newest body of work, Velvet Room Sessions: Iconic Piano Jazz, Vol. I, now available worldwide on all digital platforms. Released under Iconic Music Group, this soft piano jazz album delivers a luxurious blend of emotional nuance, technical precision, and pure musical storytelling—offering fans a rare and intimate experience through 21 original compositions.
Already known globally as a consummate music aficionado with a 30-year career spanning rap, reggae, R&B, pop, rock, soul, and beyond, Samuels now presents a bold and elegant statement within the jazz tradition. This album is both a quiet revolution and a celebration of his remarkable versatility as a creator who does not simply cross genres—he masters them.
Each track—bearing evocative titles such as Ballerina In The Moonlight, Rainfall In Sepia Tones, Solitude On Starkey Hill, and Seduction By Candlelight—is meticulously composed and performed by Samuels himself. These pieces, full of subtle dynamics and sonic emotion, create a deeply immersive soundscape that invites listeners to reflect, unwind, and journey inward.
“This project came from a space of personal evolution,” said Samuels. “It’s jazz not just as performance, but as presence—every note intentional, every pause meaningful. I wanted to give the world something timeless, honest, and beautifully human.”
From smoky lounge vibes to cinematic noir atmospheres, Velvet Room Sessions channels the spirit of jazz greats while imprinting Samuels’ distinct melodic signature—graceful, imaginative, and profoundly expressive.
Critics and insiders are already calling this a pivotal moment in Samuels’ vast discography. As a Billboard-style critique puts it:
“With Velvet Room Sessions, Samuels doesn’t just step into the piano jazz arena—he walks in like he’s owned it all along. The fluid grace with which he handles composition, arrangement, and emotional nuance proves once more why he’s a supra-talented auteur in a world often crowded with imitation.”
This release also deepens the identity of Iconic Music Group, the Belize-based powerhouse label Mr. Samuels helms, further establishing its presence in global music innovation and excellence.
This release is part of a larger 1,000-song music catalog fully owned by Ewing R. Samuels III and Iconic Music Group.
