Tyreek McDole’s debut album Open Up Your Senses is a warm, soulful invitation into his world as a jazz vocalist of rare maturity. At just 25, the Haitian-American singer delivers a baritone that seems timeless—rooted in tradition yet unafraid to explore new territory. The album weaves through spiritual chants, bebop swing, reflective balladry, and spirited blues, painting a vivid sonic portrait that is both deeply rooted and delightfully surprising. With stellar support from musicians like Kenny Barron, Sullivan Fortner, Dylan Band, and Rodney Whitaker, McDole crafts arrangements that feel like intimate conversations—soulful, vibrant, and heartfelt.What stands out most is McDole’s ability to balance reverence with innovation. Whether immersing himself in Leon Thomas’s The Creator Has a Master Plan, delivering a tender duet with Barron on Ugly Beauty, or leaning into cultural heritage with the Haitian chant Wongolo Wale, he sings with conviction and clarity. Open Up Your Senses doesn’t come across as a cautious first step—it feels like a confident arrival. Effortless scatting, playful bebop, and exultant blues show off a vocalist who knows both his voice and his purpose, giving listeners not just an album, but an experience.
