“For artists, returning to meaningful songs can offer an opportunity to see how music evolves alongside its creator. 'Still a Brand New Love' represents that intersection of past and present, demonstrating how songwriting can continue to take on new meaning as listeners and artists move through different stages of life. ” - Janay Howard
“At the center of “Still a Brand New Love” is the idea that meaningful music can remain relevant long after it is first written. The album explores emotions and experiences that continue to connect people across generations, demonstrating how a song can take on new meaning depending on where a listener is in life. “For me, this album has always represented something that doesn’t really go away,” said Stosic. “That’s why ‘Still a Brand New Love’ feels like the right title.

“When musicians rerelease material, they often do so to harness the power of nostalgia. A rerelease reawakens the feelings fans had in an earlier era, transporting them back to a time and a place they treasure. For those who experienced Michael Stosic’s “Brand New Love” when it was released in 1986, his rerelease of that album, titled “Still A Brand New Love,” will definitely generate nostalgia. But that isn’t the main reason for the rerelease. As the title suggests, the “brand new love” Stosic sang about 40 years ago is as fresh and powerful today as it was then. Stosic hopes that love will touch the lives of returning listeners and those hearing his music for the first time. Those who are hearing Stosic’s songs for the first time will experience an album that is upbeat, uplifting, and very energetic. And those who are revisiting the music will find the re-recorded songs to be slightly different from the originals. The album retains the uplifting pop/rock spirit of the original while giving the songs a contemporary recording. The first single, “So Easy to Love,” was distributed to radio stations beginning August 17 ahead of the album’s full release. ” - Shawn Grant

“On “Tell Me You Love Me,” Stosic’s soulful voice is beautifully captured by the sleek production; it’s as smooth as molasses. “Easy Come Easy Go” is gorgeously rendered adult pop, its acoustic prettiness blending effortlessly with the sublime piano. On “If You Ever Change Your Mind,” Stosic easily recalls Boz Scaggs while shimmering keyboards offer a transcendent uplift to “Can’t Run from Love.” Stosic has quite a voice, brimming with passion and real emotion. His silky crooning on “Be Easy Love” will have hearts melting.” - Stacey Zering
“American singer-songwriter Michael Stosic, who is currently active in the Gospel/CCM scene, released his first self-titled album in 1982. The original LP is rare and contents wonderful songs that will please "Soft Rock" fans. Sounds featuring brilliant horns, strings and high-level arrangements. From light mellow AOR to light urban boogie and sweet ballads, this is a masterpiece boasting rare music quality that sets it apart from most reissues!” - Arnaud Leger
