Revered DJ and radio host Lefto Early Bird is back with his new album Motherless Father.
Across its ten tracks, the album sees Lefto delving deeper than ever, crafting a melancholic collection while throwing sonic shifts and shapes onto the dancefloor.
It’s a mix of the quiet and reflective; and the big, bold and beautiful, from the soulful opening of ‘Diane Charlemagne’ featuring the in-demand vocalist Iman Houssein to the Detroit vibes of latest single ‘Electric’. Elsewhere, the epic slow burner ‘Love Supreme (Part 1 and 2)’ unfurls with dreamy synths, mellow grooves and Aint About Me’s spoken word vocals across a seven minute odyssey, lead single ‘I Sing To Find Peace of Mind’ is a journey through uptempo jazz featuring Lefto himself on vocals and DJ/multi-instrumentalist Simbad on saxophone, while ‘The Birth of a New You’ and ‘One Day You Smile, One Day You Cry’ make the most of Pierro Spataro’s poignant saxophone tones.
