INTERVIEW: KING’s Paris Strother

As the first quarter of 2016 fades into the rear view and we begin to set vacation plans now that we can venture outside without risk of snow or frostbite, travel soundtracks must be selected. One such album virtually packed for such excursions is talented trio King’s recently released and much anticipated debut, ‘We Are King’. Whether you’re jumping in the car and rolling down the windows to feel the warm breeze or taking a plane to a far-off land, this album serves as the chill perfect partner. Getting co-signs from Questlove, Erykah Badu, Prince (being asked to open for him in LA) and collaborating with Robert Glasper on Grammy-winning ‘Black Radio’, the love for this threesome runs deep.

Chatting with King member and producer Paris Strother right before the release about their ethereal synth soul, the experience of opening for Prince in front of a packed arena of thousands, being a proud music nerd, working with Glasper and the new album.
