Justin Raines Releases New Single, “Never Letting Go”
As bassist for Israel Houghton & The New Breed, Justin Raines typically didn’t have time to work on his own music. Of course, that’s changed this year and now he’s released a brand new original song called “Never Letting Go”.
“Well, I did something during this quarantine! I finally finished one of my original songs,” he writes. “It’s something different from my heart! I’m looking forward to your feedback. I’m also looking forward to creating more original music!”
The beautiful, heartfelt track features Raines filling out all the melodic and harmonic content from the bass. His tone and phrasing will transport you. “Never Letting Go” is available now via iTunes and Amazon MP3.
