Soulmate Love

Soulmate Love

A song about instant connection, undeniable chemistry, and the feeling that two people were somehow always supposed to find each other. Romantic R&B meets rhythmic delivery and hip-hop energy.

R&B / SOUL

04

Musical Chairs

A relationship can become a game when one person is chasing love while the other keeps changing the rules. “Musical Chairs” takes a childhood game and turns it into a metaphor for an adult relationship.

R&B / SOUL

05

Castaway

A song about distance, longing, signs, and searching for some indication that the person you love is still searching for you too. From repeating sevens to a purple-orange evening sky, ordinary moments begin feeling like messages.

R&B / SOUL

06

Anchored

A song about holding on when your heart feels caught between love, uncertainty, and hope. “Anchored” holds a special place in the catalog because it was the first song J. Escalante ever wrote.

R&B / SOUL

07

Notebook of My Dreams

A songwriter opens the pages of his own heart. Love. Loss. Memories. Mistakes. Hope. Every page becomes part of the person he is still becoming.

SO CLOSE, SO FAR AWAY supplied song cover

COUNTRY

09

So Close, So Far Away

A duet about two people who were once physically close but gradually became emotionally separated. Sometimes the greatest distance between two people cannot be measured in miles.

DREAMER supplied song cover

COUNTRY

10

Dreamer

Two people lie awake beneath the same stars. Neither knows the other exists. Both have been hurt. Both wonder whether someone somewhere is still searching for the same kind of love. And neither is ready to stop believing.

BETWEEN THE LINES supplied song cover

COUNTRY

11

Between the Lines

A story about rebuilding yourself after disappointment, heartbreak, and losing pieces of who you once were. The road becomes a metaphor for learning how to keep moving without losing yourself again.
