Allen Stone's Tribute to Christopher Cross
Today, Allen Stone, a prominent figure in American soul and R&B, releases his rendition of "Ride Like The Wind," originally by Christopher Cross, under Seeker Music's fun label. The new cover, complete with a live performance video, showcases Stone's powerful vocals and gospel influences, breathing fresh life into this classic soft rock anthem.
Seeker Music, established by M&G Investments and led by Evan Bogart, acquired Cross' catalog in 2023 and has since revitalized it through innovative marketing strategies. This cover follows a series of successful releases, including the first official music video for "Ride Like The Wind" and a reimagined version of "Sailing" by Benny Sings. Seeker's efforts have significantly increased Cross' streaming presence, reaching seven million monthly listeners on Spotify.
Stone, known for his modern take on classic soul, has been performing this cover throughout his 2025 tour, sharing the stage with various artists. He expresses excitement about honoring Cross through his performance, recognizing the song's enduring legacy.
