Season 6 Mini Episode #6 PHER

The Black Landscape

PHER, the Oakland native and global singing phenomenon formerly known as Chris Turner, is a rare artist fully versed in both the jazz tradition and classic soul, and equally comfortable in either universe.
As a Soul, R&B and Jazz artist, PHER is taking center stage with his upcoming album “Songs by PHER” complete and ready to be marketed to the world soon. For now, we are releasing singles from the album with the latest single releases, “Spice” and “Tomorrow Is Too Late” featuring Jesse Boykins III already making waves.
He gained invaluable experience in the Bay Area scene before decamping to New York, studying at the New School, and working with a staggering list of major jazz, soul, R&B and Hip Hop artists. Pher joined the faculty of his alma mater in 2013, the New School University Jazz program teaching voice, ranging from beginner singers to college students to pop artists that include Sean Kingston, 070Shake, and WolfTyla.
Pher’s 2013 debut LOVElife is a Challenge was a wildly successful mixtape documenting the evolution of his life as a man and as a father. He made a standout appearance on Snarky Puppy’s 2016 release Family Dinner Volume Two, performing his smash single, “Liquid Love.” PHER’s latest single, “Murky,” is close to surpassing 2 million streams on Spotify. It is an audio representation of a light at the end of the tunnel. It embodies the faith that it takes to continue on the journey of unconditional love.
Pher is honored to be a part of 3 Grammy awards as a vocalist, 2 awards on Esperanza Spalding’s “Radio Music Society” album and 1 Grammy award for Jon Batiste’s “Hollywood Africans.” He has also toured and recorded internationally with his own group, as well as with music industry legends like Usher, The Roots, Robert Glasper, Stevie Wonder, Kanye West, Bootsy Collins, Sam Smith, Disclosure, Mike Posner, Bilal, Harvey Mason Sr., Eddie Palmeri, Eric Harland, Kris Bowers, Sean Kingston, Chrisette Michelle, Consequence, Lupe Fiasco and many more.
