Opening with soulful, NTRO , Nate Robinson on bass and Gino Iglehart on drums set a solid foundation, with Corey Lacy building on keys and lush guitar work by Zac Harmon and Kingston Livingston really setting the bar. Terrific opener. Blue Pill Thrill has super movement and soulful vocals by Harmon.

Opening with Marinate , a bluesy track with a strong modern R&B feel, it features superstar recording artist Chel and Davis Chris on vocal, Platinum Producer Caleb Bingham on lead guitar and Mr Foster on drums.

Chris and Foster team up  on vocal on title track, Wings and Blue Cheese , a soulful track with a cool melody and solid beat.
