Samm Henshaw – Untidy Soul LP

Description

Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 debut album from the British singer/songwriter. The 16-track UNTIDY SOUL spans a myriad of genres and sounds. Saxophone swoons through hazy production before the bass kicks in on “Take Time” [feat. Tobe Nwigwe]. Simultaneously, a high-register harmony underscores Henshaw’s hypnotic hook. Elsewhere, “East Detroit” cruises on a skittering beat draped in an airy loop as he croons, “Baby, it’s 4am in East Detroit, and I’d do anything to hear your voice.” Elsewhere, guitar and horns entwine on the simmering “Enough.” Interludes such as “Mr. Introvert” and “Mr. Introvert Reprise” expand the album’s cinematic scope, while this journey concludes on a rapturous note during “Joy.” Tracks from UNTIDY SOUL have already gathered nearly 10 million streams in advance of it’s arrival driven by fan favorites such as “Chicken Wings” and “Chicken Wings (Remix)” [feat. Mick Jenkins & Bando] as well as “Still Broke” [feat. Keyon Harold]. It also boasts “Grow,” which he just performed for the first time on The Late Late Show with James Corden.
