Rodney Greene’s new album “Evolution” drops August 2026, kicking off with the sizzling single “Wind It Up” — a groove-driven anthem featuring smooth jazz guitar legend Nils. Blending soulful melodies, fiery sax and guitar interplay, and Greene’s signature basslines, this track showcases his evolution as a multi-instrumentalist influenced by Earth, Wind & Fire, Marvin Gaye, and smooth jazz giants like Brian Culbertson and Boney James. With collaborations like Jackiem Joyner and a sound that’s both fresh and timeless, this is one smooth ride you won’t want to miss.
