The Whereabouts Of Will Bernard Is Right Here Psychodelic Soulful Jazz And Beyond

Grammy-nominated guitarist and composer Will Bernard announces the release of Whereabouts, November 21 his forthcoming album on Denver-based record label Color Red. The record marks the return of Bernard’s high-energy ensemble The Freelance Subversives, a moniker borrowed from Terry Gilliam’s cult film Brazil. Blending classic soul-jazz, R&B, psychedelia, and funk, Whereabouts is an all-original, danceable collection crafted with a stacked roster of legendary NYC session heavyweights and jam-scene icons.
Founded by Eddie Roberts of The New Mastersounds, Color Red is renowned for its focus on premier vinyl releases from top-tier funk, soul, and jam artists. Whereabouts serves as the spiritual successor to Bernard’s acclaimed 2020 Ropeadope release, Freelance Subversives, expanding on his signature blend of deep grooves, expressive guitar work, and playful composition.
"The music I am involved with often doesn’t fit neatly into premade boxes," says Bernard. "The Freelance Subversives is a vehicle for me to write music oriented towards funky good times and solid grooves. It’s meant to be danced to, put on to enhance a mood, or gotten lost in with headphones."
