Eric Krasno is a founding member of Soulive and Lettuce, as well as an accomplished songwriter, producer, and session guitarist. Yesterday, he premiered a brand new music video for "Waiting On Your Love." Watch above on YouTube.

"Waiting On Your Love" marks a new chapter for Krasno, as it's the first single he's released as a lead vocalist. It's also a slight change of direction stylistically, moving away from funky jazz and toward more of a hard blues rock vibe. He spoke with Billboard about his influences:

Growing up, I listened to Hendrix, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and the Grateful Dead, along with a lot of hip-hop... When I linked up with Soulive, we played instrumental music, and that's the path I’ve mostly been on ever since. This record loops back to those initial bands and songs I loved, but with the added experience and influence of the past 20 years.

He also talked about the creative process and what it was like to make his debut as a lead singer even though he's an established musician:

We didn't realize we were actually making the record, so there was no pressure, and that let us experiment in really cool ways... There's a lot of rawness to the recordings, and that really bled into the performances and my vocal delivery...

It's something I didn’t know was there... I would have been totally content just being a guitar player and writing songs for other people, but this inspiration just happened, and I'm really glad it did, because it's changed things. I didn't know I had this in me.

The video was shot at a "rundown factory building in New Orleans" and features psychedelic production. It's dark and features a kaleidoscopic effect, matching the music nicely.

The song comes from Krasno's upcoming solo album, Blood From a Stone, which is set to be released on July 8, 2016. His last solo album was Reminisce, which was released in 2010 and featured some singing from Nigel Hall.

"Waiting on Your Love" is available on Amazon. It's also available as a free download at NoiseTrade.
