After scoring two number one songs last year, it seemed only natural that singers Hopeton Lindo and Fiona expand their winning partnership. They do just that with “In The Mood”, an EP that was released July 16 by Zojak Worldwide.
It contains "In Your Eyes" which first topped the Foundation Radio Network Chart in December, 2019, and "Guilty", a number one song on the South Florida and New York Reggae Chart last year.
“Guilty” is a cover of Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibbs’ hit from 1980.
“We have a chemistry that comes naturally. Our voices blend beautifully, plus our professional approach and love for music brings out the best,” said Lindo.
Lindo produced four of the EP tracks including “Guilty” and “You Don’t Have To Be A Star”, a massive hit for husband and wife act Billy Davis Jr. and Marilyn McCoo in 1976, one of the favorites on the EP.
The title song, "In The Mood" and also "In Your Eyes" are produced by Sly and Robbie and Rory Baker for Taxi/One Pop Records, with whom Lindo has also had a successful tandem especially in the last two years.
Another soul classic that gets a smooth reggae remake on the EP is "Yes I'm Ready", originally done by Barbara Mason in 1964.
"Love Don't Fail Me" an amazing Duet Remix, written by Fiona is another smashing track on the project.
