Originally released on Christmas 2022, the warm new to you soul single “Whoa (You’re The One For Me)” by BJ Wilbanks will induce all the pull-your-someone-close vibes you’ll ever need, all year round. It’s a lil bit Motown, with hints of Boz Scaggs groove and plenty of Righteous Brothers hum-a-long built into its indelible sexy charm. Oh, how the ole time rocknsoul will melt ya…
Before you turn the lights down low and get your winter snuggle on, here’s an excerpt from Wilnaks’ bio — in case this is the first you’ve heard of this need-to-know singer-songwriter. “Georgia-born BJ Wilbanks is a prolific and extremely talented songwriter/producer. He creates music that fuses the roots of Americana, Motown, Funk, Blues, & Country into an intoxicating blend that is all his own. Critics and fans have referred to his style as “Back Porch Soul.” His 2017 self-titled album received high acclaim by American Songwriter, All Music, and many other major music outlets. His genuine sound and success as an artist lead to him performing shows with music legends Gladys Knight, Drivin N Cryin, and funk rock legends Mothers Finest. BJ has also been enjoying regional popularity with his other band, Gibson Wilbanks, who have opened for artists like Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds, and Diane Durrett.”
