CDB, ‘90s masters of Australian R&B, return to the scene with their new album Tailored for Now – Eleven R&B Super Jams. Original members Andrew De Silva, brothers Gary and Brad Pinto and Danny Williams celebrate their ‘90s R&B heroes with iconic hits from Boyz II Men, Montell Jordan, SWV, R Kelly and many more.
Produced by Andrew De Silva and Gary Pinto, these R&B super jams are brought into 2017 with a slick new production and the tight vocally driven performance one would expect from this band.
“The resurgence of ‘90s R&B into mainstream music culture is like a dream come true for us,” said Gary Pinto. “This new album allows us to share with our audience a very special time in our lives. The artists we pay tribute to on this album and their culture was our inspiration. Having this opportunity to showcase these songs, put our own flavour into them and bring them into today is a really special thing.”
Individually, the members of CDB have created their own success stories and etched out their place within the Australian music industry. Andrew won the 2012 season final of Australia’s Got Talent and is a successful recording artist, songwriter and producer. Gary is the Vocal Director of Channel Seven’s X Factor and has mentored artists such as Samantha Jade, Dami Im, Will Singe and many more. Brad is an accomplished songwriter with successes including co-writing JJJ’s Hottest 100 hit Boys Like You with rapper 360.
As teenagers, CDB were part of Melbourne’s south eastern urban scene, a movement that included musicians, producers, rappers, graffiti and visual artists, DJs, fashion designers, and dancers. Signed to Sony in their late teens, CDB’s debut album Glide with Me (1994) went platinum in Australia and Top 5 in France. Let’s Groove topped the ARIA chart and was the bestselling Australian single of 1995. CDB toured the world, playing with the likes of Boyz II Men, K-Ci & Jo-Jo, Desiree and Tina Arena. They performed in Seoul to a live audience of 100,000 and a broadcast audience of 17 million worldwide.
