Blue-eyed soul man Colin Lake has spent a lot time on the water. Somehow in 2008, Lake found himself washed ashore in his personal paradise: New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. As he went to board a plane back to Portland, he met his future wife and the two would eventually plant roots in the Crescent City where he gigged around, playing various events at the Jazz Museum and holding a residency at d.b.a.

Blue-eyed soul man Colin Lake has lived an entire life since he last released an album in 2015: He left New Orleans and retired from performing two years later, sold his home, bought a boat and christened it “Wavelength” after a favorite Van Morrison song. Over the past few years, he and his wife have turned up in Belize, the Caymans, Guatemala and Antigua, only occasionally venturing out to play a gig.
