August 9, 2021: On this edition of PSYCHOTIC BUMP SCHOOL with DJ ROME:

PART 1: JEFFREY KELLER & LORI PEACOCK return to recap the week in international news

PART 2: Comic content creators HANNIBAL TABU & DEMAR DOUGLAS drop by to discuss the business of comic books & their latest project "False Flag"

PART 3: Singer/Songwriter VINCE DURRELL drops in to discuss his career + his latest song currently sitting at #1 on the UK Soul chart with GARCIA,WALKER,DURRELL


(July 23, 2021) As the production guru behind ‘90s soul-dance outfit Driza Bone, Vincent Garcia crafted memorable remixes of now-classic hits by the likes of Mary J. Blige, Jody Watley, and Lisa Stansfield. Following more than a decade spent largely out of the spotlight, he teamed up with multi-instrumentalist Mark Walker in 2014 to craft the mellow and nostalgic “Praying for Rain,” fronted by US-based Vince Durrell.

Although the track garnered notable attention via inclusion on a Soul Togetherness compilation, the album of the same title was shelved—until now. Recent interest in a cover of the late Beloyd Taylor’s “Get into Your Life” has brought the Garcia Walker & Durrell project back to life via Soul Intention Records. Simultaneously, more soul fans are discovering “Praying for Rain,” coming to appreciate the laid back vocal appeal of Durrell, songwriting craft of Walker, and production savvy of Garcia.

Take a listen to Garcia Walker & Durrell’s heartfelt “Praying for Rain” and let us know how it vibes with you:
