Two-time Grammy nominated Calvin Richardson.

*“I’ve been in the game for over 20 years. I’m seasoned,” said two-time Grammy-nominated Calvin Richardson. On October 25, 2019 the seasoned singer releases “Gold Dust” (Shanachie Entertainment), with the newest single “Let Me Love on You” at radio.

Richardson debuted as a solo artist on his label Country Boy/Uptown Records imprint in 1999. Uptown Records was the label of Andre Harrell headed by Heavy D, distributed by Universal Music Group and home of Heavy D & the Boyz, Notorious B.I.G. and Jodeci. In 2003 Calvin released his sophomore album, “2:35PM,” off Hollywood Records a label of Disney Music Group. In 2008 Richard signed with Shanachie Entertainment released “When Loves Comes.” It was his 2009 release “Facts of Life” that garnered him two Grammy nominations. Three other Shanachie album releases followed. Shanachie was founded by two New Jersey natives Richard Nevins and Dan Collins in 1976 to release “fiddle’ music. Evolving to meet the needs of the industry by mid-90s Shanachie was also releasing Reggae projects. Today they also include Jazz (Shanachie Jazz), R&B, Latin and Gospel.

Calvin adds author to his credits with the release of his first book “Do You Without Them.”

“I started writing my book three years ago. I finished six or seven months ago,” Calvin said about the project. “I shopped the book. It landed a publishing company. I just approved of the cover.”

Calvin talked about vocal damage that he is just getting back from.

“I’m still getting back to where I want to be,” he sincerely said. “It’s like a muscle…you have to rehabilitate it…built it.”

Richardson said the “Gold Dust” project us about his life story.

“I went with that as the end result in my mind,” said concluded. “To be honest.” www.Shanachie.com www.IAmCalvinRichardson.com
