Plays for Keeps

Johnny Burgos and veteran soul producer, Jeremy Page, (best known for his work with Kendra Morris, Czarface & MF Doom) offer up their final single titled, 'Plays for Keeps,' in anticipation of the duo's upcoming album 'All I Ever Wonder' The track is a masterfully crafted tale of tantalizing lust between Burgos and a love interest, as his sultry croons narrate the encounter in vivid detail. Page's instrumental pays profound homage to early 70's funk & soul, and compliments the vocal in a musical matrimony that spawns a sound equal parts Marvin Gaye, Isaac Hayes and even some early MJ.
