Both of the aforementioned singles will be part of nine songs on his next album Part II, scheduled for release in 2024. As of the writing, the single is only available on all digital platforms.
Harrington has been performing as a funk, samba, Soul, R&B, and rock guitarist throughout the U.S. and Canada for more than 45 years.
