Details Press Release.

Step into the Blue Light with The Static Dive. “Havana Buddha Blue” is the first single from Blue Light Sessions, Volume 2, the new 6-song set of Latin-infused lounge grooves, jazz vibes, and blues licks. The track is a joyful fusion jam that blends Latin percussion, blues riffs, zen vibes, and a Big Easy groove. The Static Dive is the professional name of recording artist and producer Bob Smith. He closed last year with Blue Light Sessions, Volume 1, a groundbreaking EP of retro jazz vibes from the house band at the fabulously fictitious Blue Light club. The record is still getting airplay on terrestrial and online stations around the globe. On Blue Light Sessions, Volume 2, Smith dives even deeper into his soulful and syncopated sonic world.
