“Cliff Beach brings classic old-school soul vocals into the 21st century with a series of catchy and groovy tracks that had secured him spots in a number of editorial playlists and BBC Radio 6. For lovers of soul, gospel, r&b, funk, and lowkey house vibes ...”

“Beach showcases his vocal range…reminiscent of James Brown and Stevie Wonder—two of the greatest funk/soul artists in American history. His new EP, ‘Son of a Beach’ [shows] a little taste of Cliff Beach’s soul.”

“Cliff Beach describes his music as “Nu-funk,” an engaging blend of funk, jazz, and soul. Turns out it’s a style that goes well with holiday music, making Beach’s Merry Christmas, Happy New Year (California Soul Music) an entertaining collection. Beach has fun with “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” glides through “Zat You Santa Claus,” and turns in the bluesiest “Merry Christmas Baby” you’ll hear this year.”

“Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" is a bluesy, funky Christmas present from Cliff Beach that will be enjoyed for a long time to come. There are tracks to get your Christmas party moving, including terrific takes on "Zat You Santa Claus?" and "Soulful Christmas" (and in the latter of those, you can feel Cliff channeling James Brown). He slows it down with "The Christmas Song" and "Merry Christmas, Baby", perfect for snuggling in the glow of Christmas tree lights. Many more yuletide chestnuts are here, given new life that makes them sound very fresh and, at the same time, comfortable like an old friend. And the original title track is a welcome addition to the canon of holiday music, with its declaration of love and what's really important during the festive season (and all the rest of the year, too)!”

“Cliff Beach —'I Got Soul' (Mogul Remix), #13 on FLOOD FM’s 'F Yeah Fridays' (Fave 15) podcast!”

“[A] cool new funky jam from Cliff Beach, he has been doing very well lately having picked up the likes of the grand prize at the John Lennon songwriting contest and several Global Music Awards. [He's] Got Soul!”

“Beach returns to the forefront with the delightfully fun and funky declaration of rhythm with the song “I Got Soul.” This track has the energy that you would expect from a man who asserts that he can lose anything from his wealth to his health, but that feeling that he feels when he hears that thumping bass and those kicking drums ain’t going nowhere. Soul is embedded in Beach’s DNA. Everything else is optional, but for Cliff Beach the soul that is deep down in his bones is non-negotiable.”

“[Cliff Beach] shares with the world his take on the holiday song, 'You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch'...[which] takes it from novelty to soul-jazz classic, making it more easy to listen to, with less dramatic stops and having a Ray Charles meets Stray Cats flavor.”
