Love Like Ours

This highly polished album is a loosely thematic song cycle detailing the arc of a relationship - the joy, the pain and the lessons learned. The album features guests Ray Parker Jr. And Dominique's father Kevin Toney (founding keyboardist of The Blackbyrds). The music moves from the sassily flirtatious opener "Loving You's So Easy" to the jazzy Latin swing of the title track "A Love Like Ours" to a powerful heart-tugging ballad entitled "Pieces" (featuring Ray Parker Jr. #on acoustic and electric guitars) to the mid-tempo dance pop piece "Blink of An Eye." There's also a very hip cover of Carly Simon's smoldering '70s liberated woman classic "Vengeance" (featuring lead and rhythm guitar by Rob Bacon of "The Arsenio Hall Show" Posse Band) and a brilliant collaboration with Lebrese Black on "Just Don't Know" which features a rap and a wicked string section line.
