Andre Cymone’s new album might be titled 1969, but nostalgia is the farthest thing from his mind. “There’s so many parallels between 1969 and now,” the veteran singer / songwriter / producer observes. “You watch the news and see all the crazy, crazy stuff that’s going on, and you realize that we’re still dealing with a lot of the same issues now that we were dealing with then. That inspired a lot of these songs.”

Sonically bracing and lyrically incisive, 1969 draws some startling parallels between its titular year – the year when the utopian ideals of the ’60s came face to face with harsh reality – and today. The result is a deeply compelling musical statement; the work of a passionate idealist confronting the brutal disappointments of the real world.

While his current outpouring of creativity has added a significant new chapter to his story, Cymone’s musical life began decades ago. He found a kindred spirit in his schoolmate Prince, laying the groundwork for the revolutionary Minneapolis sound.  In the early ’80s Cymone launched a solo career, releasing three well-received albums who spawned half a dozen hit singles. Cymone also established himself as an in-demand producer, overseeing a series of successful releases by a diverse array of acts including Jody Watley, Tom Jones, Adam Ant, and more.
