Weekend

Weekend

Braxton Cook is one of this generation's most exciting voices. An NAACP Image Award nominee, he has also earned praise from Forbes, The New Yorker, Fader and The Washington Post. A uniquely talented vocalist, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Cook blends jazz, soul, and alt-R&B into a fresh new sound all his own. While a student at Juilliard, Braxton toured with Grammy Award-nominated trumpeter Christian Scott and has since moved onto headline tours in the US, UK and Europe, graced the stages of internationally renowned jazz festivals and toured and performed with Christian McBride Big Band, Jon Batiste, Tom Misch, and Masego, among others. “Weekend” is an R&B vocal track that has an easy-going nostalgic feel. Lyrically, the song is about the struggle to make time for your partner or loved one and the importance of finding balance in life. Speaking of the song, Braxton says “After recording the demo, I knew we needed another vocalist to speak to the other side's narrative and I had just recently met NNAVY in Milan, Italy while on tour earlier this year. So we sent her the demo with an open verse and she sent back the most amazing verse ever!! I’m very fortunate to have her grace this track and bring it all to life.”
