Kendra Morris Spins 60s Soul Into Gold on “Back With Me”
Kendra Morris just unleashed her new track “Back With Me,” and it’s pure vintage soul magic. Built on a swoon-worthy 60s doo-wop vibe, the song is all about counting down the days until a long-distance love finally comes home. Kendra’s voice absolutely soars, while her band layers in warm harmonies that feel like a heart-tugging echo from a jukebox on a summer night.
This cut is the final teaser before Next drops this Friday, September 19 via Colemine / Karma Chief Records. The LP isn’t just another release—it’s a full-blown experience. Packaged like a retro board game—complete with punch-out pieces and cards—Next invites you to spin the record and play along. Inside, Kendra blends New York’s musical history into something all her own: think Brill Building melodies meeting downtown art-scene swagger, with flashes of rocksteady groove and late-night soul.
