Join hosts Infinite and Brick for a powerhouse conversation with Reggie Braxton, as he steps into the spotlight to play new tones into our hearts. Hailing from Detroit—the original Motown sound hub—Reggie brings a lineage of rhythm and soul that runs through his blood, from a family deeply rooted in music to a production pedigree that reads like a who’s-who of the industry.
In this episode, Braxton shares:
A deep dive into his debut EP, “The Brax-Tone Experience,” a six-track kaleidoscope of jazz-infused, soul-soaked, sensual R&B.
How his Detroit lineage and a family connection to The Temptations shaped his voice and his craft.
Collaborations and production magic with heavy hitters like J. Poww (UNV), Grammy winner Christopher Bivins (BuddaWolf), and engineering by Jezreel Santos, whose work spans Kem, Gregory Porter, and Mali Music.
The journey from the local Detroit jazz scene to stages at Dummy George’s, Intermezzos, Birmingham Jazz, Toronto Caribbean Festivals, and casinos across Detroit.
The influences that color his sound—from Luther Vandross to Nat King Cole, and from Dionne Warwick to The Whispers’ Scotty and Walter.
Key tracks and moments:
The single “I Pray It’s You” lighting up the Billboard Jazz chart.
“Love Guarantee” peaking at 39 on MediaBase charts.
A candid discussion about his grandmother Gladys English, his Temptations cousin, and the village of piano greats and horn men who shaped his path.
Episode highlights:
A heartfelt explanation of Braxton’s signature Brax-Tone sound and how it marries classic influences with contemporary mood.
Stories from the road and studio—collaborations, challenges, and the discipline behind crafting intimate, seductive, soul-forward performances.
A look at Detroit’s enduring influence on modern R&B and jazz and how Reggie aims to carry that legacy forward.
Quote from Reggie Braxton:
“Here in Detroit, we are music critics by nature. Our history laid the foundation for R&B, with innumerable classics that still stand the test of time, so we take a special pride in bringing our A-game to the table. The Brax-Tone is my debut expression of musical inheritance, and I hope it will establish my own stylistic sound that music lovers will appreciate for years to come.”
