New Artist

[bencat]

Would like to offer the following as an artist that I think will be very big in 2012 but who is also very gifted and not just about the hype. His influences are Bill Withers , Donny Hathaway and Otis Redding who are all very much favourites of mine . I have to say that what I have heard up to now which is mainly from an ep this artist is not shamed to be mentioned in this illustrious company. The recording sems to favour the 70,s Stax , Hi sound with the artist playing in the room with the backing musicians which from my point of view is almist always a good thing. The album is not out till March but I would recommend that you give this a listen

Michael Kiwanuka - Home Again - Polydor - CD - ASIN: B005MYWZIO

There are not details of the Album being issued on Vinyl as yet but there was a vinyl release of Home Again as an EP so I would expect the full Album to go to Vinyl as well. Enjoy.
