Ventura Black;

“Ventura Black tells stories through lyrical & musical escapism, focused through a lens of cinematic expression & delivered within an array of various internationally inspired soundscapes and textures. 2022 was his breakthrough year for releasing music, with the debut single Next To Me, capturing a scene by scene play of a perfect first date set in the streets of Paris. Followed by Caroline, a prequel to Next To Me, about laying eyes on someone for the first time. You can expect many more stories to stem from his upcoming E.P, The Tango Of Hearts, set to be released in mid to late 2024.”
