Two Inch Punch – ‘Love You Up’

Lovely synth–twisting electronic R&B tune from London’s Two Inch Punch from the Love You Up 12 ” EP through PMR Records.

Benzil Washington has this to say about himself:

Frustrated Soul / R’n’B singer, with an ear for harmony, melody & a love for dub, rap and soul.

Inspired heavily by Beatles short love-songs, Sam Cooke’s heartfelt melodies and Donny Hathaway’s incredible vocal tones.

My mum and dad brought me up on Soul & vocal harmony groups. My earliest musical memories were my mum playing Keith Sweat & Otis Redding in the house & Dad played session guitar on tour & on records for classic artists like Jimmy Ruffin, the Pioneers, Desmond Dekker & Jimmy Cliff.

iTunes on PMR Records.
