Defining Philip Bailey

Earth, Wind & Fire singer-songwriter Philip Bailey digs deep into his past to uncover the roots of his creativity. Raised by women, Philip recalls being inspired by female singers such as Dionne Warwick, whose influence can be heard in his distinctive falsetto. Recorded in the summer of 2020, moments of raw grief are exposed as Gregory confronts the recent death of his brother to Covid-19, and they muse on the healing powers of music. Hosted on Acast.
