SAN FRANCISCO - TelAve -- The dynamic Bay Area duo, singer-songwriter Razteria and guitarist-producer Dave Shul, are thrilled to announce the release of their collaborative album Prowess Blossoming. This 11-track album written together, a journey through time with flavors of retro rock and pop, was meticulously produced over the course of 2024 and features vibrant, guitar-driven riffs, compelling melodies, and modern twists on classic rock styles from the 60s to the 90s.

Produced by Dave Shul and mixed by Razteria, Prowess Blossoming brings together an impressive lineup of veteran musicians, including Ronnie Smith on drums and vocals, Roberto Quintana on percussion, Eamon Flynn and Bob Crawford on keys, Dan Casares on tenor and baritone sax, and Joel Behrman on trumpet. The album was mastered by Justin Weiss at TrakWorx in South San Francisco, ensuring a polished, high-quality sound.
