GENTRY KOZIA

---

SOUL SINGER GENTRY KOZIA DROPS HIS FIRST SINGLE "NATURAL WOMAN" A SONG CELEBRATING & UPLIFTING ALL WOMEN YOUNG AND OLD. A MIXTURE OF VINTAGE SOUL & HIP HOP THEN ADD THE SILKY SMOOTH BACKGROUNDS WITH GENTRY'S DISTINCTIVE RASPY BUT POLISHED 2ND TENOR VOCALS AND YOU GET A SOUND THAT MISSING IN TODAY'S MUSIC. 

BORN AND RAISED IN ST LOUIS, MO, INTO A FAMILY OF SINGERS AND MUSICIANS, GENTRY WAS DESTINED TO BE A PERFORMER. INSPIRED BY PRINCE, JIMI HENDRIX, DONNY HATHAWAY & JAMES BROWN. GENTRY LEARNED TO PLAY PIANO AT AN EARLY AGE AND LATER PICKED UP THE GUITAR. CREATING A SOUND THAT'S UNIQUE IN ITS OWN, AS IS HIS IMAGE, A BLEND OF VINTAGE SOUL, ROCK & HIP HOP LAYERED WITH TODAY'S SONICS. 

MOVING FROM ST LOUIS TO CALIFORNIA TO JOIN FORCES WITH WEST COAST'S LEGEND MC HAMMER & HIS OAKLAND FIGHT CLUB IMPRINT. GENTRY HAS LENT HIS VOCALS TO MC HAMMER'S REVISION OF HIS 2017 "HELP THE CHILDREN" SINGLE FOR WHICH THE MUSIC VIDEO HAS GARNERED OVER 3 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE. 

GENTRY IS READY TO INVITE THE WORLD INTO HIS INFECTIOUS BODY OF WORK. THE SELF-PROCLAIMED "BLACK HIPPIE" A.K.A. "THE CHOCOLATE BOY WONDER" WITH THE ECLECTIC SOUND AND ECCENTRIC STYLE IS GENTRY KOZIA. ​
