The Quiet Storm is proud to present Elise Trouw. Her delivery is polished with a well developed groove as a talented multi-instrumentalist and vocalist. As a one girl band relying on looping, her skills as a great arranger shine. She has just the right touch on everything.
Drums are her main instrument, but she is gifted all around with broad skills.
She is 18 years old mashing up the 20 year old song titled Everlong by the Foo Fighters and the 40 year old Quiet Storm classic titled What You Won't Do For Love by Bobby Caldwell. She sings, plays keys, bass, guitar, drums and does it all with groove, amazing grace and a little bit of a nonchalant attitude as if it's second nature, all in one take.
Listen to all of her recordings that are out there so far and it's easy to note that she is multi-dimensional with unlimited crossover potential, so it's a futile idea to attempt to pigeonhole her style or gauge which genre she'll dominate. But this track and music video below falls quintessentially into The Quiet Storm format, all the way :)
This viral music video landed Elise her debut network TV appearance performing two songs on ABC-TV's Jimmy Kimmel Live on January 30, 2018!

This is the first time we've featured rap here. It's infused with horns and a thick jazzy funk that is very Quiet Storm. The artist from Ghana known as Blitz The Ambassador with stellar vocal support from a wonderful artist named Nneka originally from Lagos Nigeria. Both artists are so well traveled they should be considered citizens of the world.
The Quiet Storm is pleased to present Lianne La Havas and her very Quiet Storm song titled Don't Wake Me Up, from her album titled Is Your Love Big Enough.

Lianne La Havas - Don't Wake Me Up (Acoustic - Live in LA)
And, yet another beautiful live take (perhaps our favorite) of the song with her full band. The video was shot by a fan at the Village Underground in London on July 17 2012 with a single hand-held camera and no editing. The audio is nice :)

The stunning bright eyed songwriter, pianist and vocalist Alex Nester is a lady who is the real Quiet Storm deal.
She just finished this live studio recording the old school way: with real musicians simultaneously in one take. There were only a few follow up overdubs of guitar, the Hammond keyboard/organ and the background vocal tracks which Alex sang herself.
This song, titled With You, is an original she wrote and a very personal heartfelt tribute song to her grandparents Mel & Frieda as her tight-knit family was going through most difficult times together.
Alex Nester - With You (Mel & Frieda's Song)
If you loved it, you might want to hear the minimalist, yet stellar live piano/vocal video of With You that Alex originally recorded and we featured on MusicLoad.Com in April 2015. Please click here to see that video.
Prior to the above recording making onto this page, in March of 2015, our sister site MusicTelevision.Com featured a music video to another one of Alex's excellent original songs titled Show A Little Love. Please click here to see that video.

Here is some jazz, not the smooth kind, but the burning kind full of cuban beats and syncopated soaring horn arrangements. This perfectly captured live recording is of cuban drummer Dafnis Prieto and friends Manuel Valera, Charles Flores, Peter Apfelbaum, Felipe Lamoglia and Avishai Cohen as they perform at the Modern Drummer Festival back in 2008. They engage in a lot of foreplay building the momentum before the let out their big roar. mlv
Dafnis Prieto - EMERGENCY CALL
Dafnis recently released a new album titled Triangles and Squares. Read Ben Ratliff's New York Times review here. If you like real jazz, you are likely to love this.
Out of Jakarta Indonesia is one of the most soulful cats on the planet with that Quiet Storm groove. His name Sandhy Sondoro. I first came across him in 2007 when he was living in Berlin. He reminded me of a cross between Michael McDonald meets John Mellencamp. But, Sandhy Sondoro is definitely original and not trying to cop somebody else's groove. Since that time, I've followed his various moves around the world, in and out of the U.S. and to his home in Jakarta. He eventually signed to Sony Music Indonesia and has had a long string of numerous successes and attention and collaboration from and with some of the greats like hit songwriter, Diane Warren. He is an incredibly positive, high vibration, hard working guy focused on doing what he loves and does best.
Below is a handpicked audio take of Sandhy's that is most aligned to this Quiet Storm. It is titled You and I. Turn it up and enjoy!
