Chris Redding unveils his groundbreaking New Age soul album, The Colors In My Mind, now available on iHeartRadio. This transformative collection boldly champions mental health awareness and autism acceptance. Known for his soulful voice and unapologetic advocacy, Chris brings a deeply human touch to every track. Featuring 528 Hz Solfeggio healing frequencies, spiritual instrumentation, and global rhythms, the album creates a sonic journey that speaks directly to the heart and soul.
This isn't just a New Age album—it's a powerful statement of inclusion and emotional truth from an artist who continues to redefine what advocacy through music looks like. Following the success of Visions of Sounds—the first album designed specifically for neurodivergent listeners, which earned both international acclaim and Recording Academy recognition—Chris Redding returns with this deeply personal and empowering solo project.
An award-winning artist, songwriter, and producer, Chris is celebrated for his unique fusion of ambient chant and soul. He is also a passionate advocate for mental health and neurodiversity, using his platform to raise awareness and inspire change.
Neurodivergent himself, Chris lives with ADHD and synesthesia—experiences that deeply inform his creative process. His music resonates especially with listeners on the autism spectrum and those with ADHD or sensory processing differences. Inspired by his journey as a father to his nonverbal autistic son, Christian, Chris crafts immersive soundscapes that promote healing, communication, and inclusion—using music as a bridge to foster understanding and connection.
A centerpiece of the album is the powerful anthem “Love Cure”, produced by Jay MiniProducer Manuel and co-written by Chris Redding, Medusa, and Lachi—an award-winning disabilities advocate and the executive producer of the album. Lachi, a blind recording artist and activist, is the founder of the U.N.-recognized organization RAMPD.org. She has previously collaborated with iconic artists such as Stevie Wonder and Snoop Dogg and has been recognized as a USA Today Woman of the Year (2024) and a Billboard Pride List honoree (2025).
The track features emotionally charged vocals by both Chris and Lachi, along with contributions from several fellow Recording Academy artists. More than just a song, “Love Cure” is a movement. With lyrics that call for unity and a production tuned to healing frequencies, the track invites listeners to let love be the cure for stigma, discrimination, and division. The official music video premieres this Friday, October 3rd, on iHeart.com, adding a compelling visual narrative to this deeply resonant message.
Another standout track, “All Around the World”, is a vibrant children's song featuring Chris's two sons, Christian and Cairo. The track brings forward multicultural soundscapes and celebrates diversity, both sonically and socially. Co-written with Grammy-winning American singer, songwriter, and producer Autumn Rowe (Roro’s Mom) —known for Jon Batiste's Grammy-winning album We Are, Alexis Jordan’s “Happiness,” and Dua Lipa’s “Room for 2”—the song warmly unites voices in a playful celebration of Christian’s unique, nonverbal way of communicating. It's a fitting tribute to Chris’s commitment to inclusivity, blending artistry with advocacy to reach listeners across all walks of life.
The emotionally resonant track “You’re Enough”, produced by Josh Davis, is a heartfelt tribute not only to neurodivergent individuals but also to the parents who support them. It underscores the importance of a strong support system, celebrating parents as the unwavering foundation of love, encouragement, and resilience on the neurodivergent journey.
Then there’s “Running”, a deeply introspective piece that explores themes of emotional turbulence, relationships. Co-written by 2x Grammy Award-winning songwriter and producer Iyana Ferrell, known for her work on major hits like Beyoncé's Break My Soul and Chris Brown's Breezy. With raw, vulnerable lyrics penned by Chris and a soul-stirring arrangement, Running resonates with audiences who see their own struggles reflected in its verses. The song’s strength lies in its honesty, proving that Chris Redding isn’t afraid to tell the whole story—the beauty and the pain alike.
Chris Redding has long been recognized not only for his music but also for his leadership in the disability and neurodivergent advocacy space. As a neurodivergent artist himself, his career has been defined by a commitment to creating safe, inclusive spaces in the music industry. His advocacy work has been acknowledged by the Recording Academy, which named him a leader in the neurodiversity space. His presence at the intersection of creativity and activism continues to inspire fans and fellow artists alike.
The album’s visual storytelling is as intentional as its sound. The cover art, designed by Afro-German autistic artist Stephan White, reflects the rich emotional complexity of the music within. It’s another example of how Chris uses every element of his work to uplift underrepresented voices and celebrate the beauty of neurodiversity. The Colors In My Mind doesn’t just talk about acceptance, it lives through its production, its collaborators, and its message.
Available now on iHeartRadio, The Colors In My Mind is already being hailed as a landmark release in the New Age genre. With its unique fusion of healing sounds, soul-driven songwriting, and unflinching advocacy, the album offers a safe space for reflection, empathy, and emotional growth. It even includes guided meditation sequences tuned to 528 Hz, offering listeners a sonic refuge for introspection, connection, or simply a moment of peace.

His advocacy has earned global recognition, including honors from the National Congress of Argentina and the University of Florida. He is the recipient of the University of Florida’s Music Meets Medicine Impact Award for his contributions to neurodiversity acceptance and has been honored with Best Musical Short Film at the 2025 World Premiere Film Festival and Best Social Impact Film at the 46th Annual Telly Awards for his documentary Liberation, which explores neurodivergent perception through music.
Chris has also received an official proclamation from Palm Beach County: one recognizing his contributions to music and the community, and another officially declaring April as Autism Acceptance Month in both Palm Beach County and the State of Florida.
