As we prepare to launch our new album, "Do You Have The Time," we want to take a moment to thank everyone who has joined us on this journey of musical awareness. Body | Mind | Spirit | Soul | Music remains our guiding principles.
We are now in a position to put together a team of professionals who will focus on our media presence, our National and International appearances, and accelerate our release of music, which currently sits at 70+ unrecorded original messages we call music. We are looking forward to this change global presence for Spooky Kool and thank all of the team members that you will soon come to know.
Our mission is unchanged as we grow our fan base, one person at a time. This is indeed intentional as we truly want to have a personal relationship with you and know who you are when we finally meet. But our greatest joy is the awakening of the inner spirit as we reflect life's scenarios and travel closer to a better understanding of life's purpose while digging into the necessities of life's circumstances provided for our inner growth.
We offer a bit of meditation with each album release and opportunities to dwell on the who, what, when, where, and why, as we begin to see that life is not a conspiracy, and that you have not been singled out for any particular significant event; but more likely that you are not alone in these events which are by design, for your growth and not your demise. A change in attitude will reveal your new found awareness.
"Do You Have The Time" continues to explore the events of life and attempts to indicate the beauty of experiences that help us realize that we are more than what occurs before us, and that we have the ability to grow from those activities as opposed to becoming hurt or bitter. For love is at the center of it all.
In fact, there is joy in every setback as we discover that, some things are not meant for us to have. When in fact, something better is coming our way, and the removal of some things provides space for the blessing to come. Room for celebration and humility for acceptance.
So stay with us as we grow and develop in our music and our own spiritual expansion. Remain with us as we develop the messages that we receive to deliver to you.
It is only fitting that we come to that juncture where the question becomes, "Do You Have The Time?" Proposed full release date (September 2016).

Gregory Lee Commissioned to do Album Artwork
Spooky Kool has commission Gregory Lee, a Chicago-based Graphic Artist.
Gregory Lee to design our artwork for our single "I Am" which we are shooting for a July launch and release.
While the release of the music is the goal, we thought that we would take you through the process of planning and releasing the music for our upcoming album, "I Am."
Gregory Lee and Gabriel Bey were childhood friends growing up in Cleveland, Ohio in the ever popular Glenville Neighborhood, on a loving community street named Colonial Avenue, just northwest of 105th and St Clair. So much creativity and talent was hatched in the neighborhood I could write a book about it, but for now, let's stay focused on the release of "I Am" and the artwork of Gregory A. Lee. Here is his Artist Statement:
Artist Statement My name is Gregory A. Lee. I am an illustrator and graphic designer. I received a Masters of Fine Arts in Graphic Design from the Miami International University of Art and Design in 2010. For over 35 years, I have used my professional design experience in the corporate world. My goal is to give back my experience through teaching graphic design online. Just as a musician chooses to express the world through sounds of melodic deliveries, which in turn touches our hearing sensations, an artist is challenged to express the visual aspects of life to stimulate ones visual perception and emotions. He or she is able to create images that can be contained within standard boundaries or can be totally opposite and abstract pushing it far beyond the norm. Most of my art deals with portraits of individuals. My work is usually defined through bold color and texture. I do experiment with various techniques. My goal is to continue to stretch my skillset. What is most important to me is my faith and dedication to the Heavenly Father, who has continuously blessed, healed and, kept me and, has given me a charge and direction in this life. I believe within each of us, God has instilled a special gift. It is your choice to nurture it and use it to the best of your ability to bless others and leave your legacy stamp. Peace.
We will be meeting to discuss the content of the album, but a focus on the lyrics and music of "I Am."
Stay Tuned...

Marquix Global Network Post Spooky Kool Interview
The Marquix Global Network has posted their interview of Spooky Kool's leader, Gabriel Bey. A lengthy, entertaining, with interesting insight into the development and future of the band, this is a must read.
The opening statement is as follows: With undeniable vocal talent and fine-tuned musicianship served straight up, Spooky Kool is an artist that any R&B / soul music enthusiast will thoroughly enjoy. The success of his latest awarding-winning work has not gone unnoticed by the critics, with one recently writing: ‘An astonishing voice, fresh instrumentation and lots of soul make this uptempo R&B jam by Spooky Kool shine brilliantly.' Yet there’s something special about Spooky Kool that sets him apart from other R&B / soul acts. In a musical generation characterized by manufactured pop acts, Spooky Kool's originality and sincerity do more than stand out. They reveal qualities that cannot be engineered in the studio. There’s also an unpretentious realness to this artist out of Phoenix, Arizona and judging by his growing fan base, he may be precisely what the new generation didn't know it was missing. Independent reporter Blake Wright recently caught up with Spooky Kool to get an inside look at this exciting new artist and to learn what he has in store for fans this year.
