Worlds away from the laid-back chill vibes of his earlier singles, former IT expert Bob Coate has found a much more engaging, fresh, funked-out high energy flow since joining forces in 2024 with producers Peet Ferencz (Peet Project) and Smoothjazz.com founder Sandy Shore, as well as Peet Project's fiery former sax man Peter Herold. Keeping his melodic and improvisational keyboard magic front and center, Coate follows the team's global smooth jazz hits "Love Like That" and "Forward Flow" (#1 on the Top 100 Smooth Jazz charts in Spain and Latin America) with the equally spirited and rambunctious "Power Surge," which lives up to its name with swagger, heartfelt power and simmering organ flavors under the main melody line. It's the perfect fall pick-me-up!
