Fort Worth-based singer-songwriter JEFF PRINCE has released his first solo album -- “Hey Love!” -- a starkly intense effort and a unique approach to Texas Music. Engineered and produced by James Michael Taylor at the Good Oops Studio in Fort Worth, Texas and released on Reload Records “Hey Love!” offers an exhilarating take on love, from first blush to headlong rush to nothing but dust. The album’s 10 songs are forged with occasionally blunt but always poetic lyrics sung in Prince’s plaintive vocal style. Some of Taylor’s background choral work features more than 20 vocal tracks stacked on top of each other to add lushness to the simple accompaniment of Prince’s acoustic and electric guitars.

You can read reviews of Hey Love! in the reviews section.
