Aural Penetration Available Digitally

The long awaited follow up album to Tony Ozier's Mental Candy is now available online through CD Baby, iTunes, or whereever you buy your online music. Aural Penetration combines funk, soul, and some really great writing that will keep this album in your rotation for some time. 

Using talent from across the globe, including the writing skills of London's MoeZart, Nairobi's Neno, and Detroit's Neco Redd, the album draws on many unique voices to create a sound that is strong and united together.

Combined with the timeless production of BeatsGalore and several noteworthy guest appearances, this album has several positive hits with infectious rhythyms (try: Hope, Raise it High, Say Anything, and Own History for starters) that will stay in your head and keep you moving through whatever your day throws at you.

Tony Ozier is currently performing with his band the Doo Doo Funk Allstars in the Northwest and is lining up an exciting summer and fall of shows. He is also in the studio recording the Doo Doo Funk Allstars live album which should be completed by the end of the summer.

Liv Warfield at PDX POP NOW

With leftovers in the fridge from Thanksgiving and a rainy day out here in the Northwest, what better way to spend this lazy day than watching some warm music from this past summer and relaxing with friends and family.

I leave you with Portland's soul diva Liv Warfield and her band at the PDX POP NOW show this past summer. This energy-filled rendition of the Rolling Stones' classic "Gimme Shelter" will keep you moving this weekend.
