Wheeler del Torro teams up with soulful songbird Sidney Washington in their third collaboration, Quite Alright. Loaded with a poignant message, Quite Alright gives voice to a common micro aggression that women of colour experience as Sidney delivers a heartfelt account of the unseen experiences that many women face in the world of dating. The release comes with three very different musical flavours: a powerful Afro House vibe dipped in melancholy from New York’s Doug Gomez; a stellar, soulful House outing from Italy’s up and coming talent Paul Adam; and an upbeat, piano-driven House groove from Wheeler himself.
“We want women of color- whether your skin tone is tawny, caramel, cinnamon or dark chocolate- to know that we see you, we understand, and we think you’re beautiful exactly as you are.” – Wheeler del Torro
