Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in White Vinyl from Shaznay Lewis Shaznay Lewis’s recent single ‘Miracle’ affirmed that the voice behind classic hits such as ‘Never Ever’, ‘Pure Shores’ and ‘Black Coffee’ was back. And despite being away for twenty years it was as exemplary as ever better, even, given the maturity and life experience she could now draw on. Greeted by coverage from NME, The Line of Best Fit, The Times, Independent and more, Shaznay now accelerates her return by announcing that her longawaited second solo album ‘Pages’ will be released on 17th May 2024.Some things are just worth the wait. ‘Pages’ is a lush masterpiece of psychedelic soul, cinematic strings and sophisticated RnB that combines her established songwriting with the kind of lyrical wisdom which can only come from experience. Coming from someone blessed with deep vocal expressiveness, someone with an avowed “allergy to autotune,” it is also a reminder of what real soul sounds like.Shaznay says, “I do feel as though I’m starting again, and making this record with some special people has been an exhilarating experience. I felt free for the first time. For this album, myself and the people I worked with were making it for one reason only to just make music that we felt was good, and for people to take and enjoy. You need to be in the right place and clear headspace to create good work and finally, I had that.”Track ListingA Side‘Missiles ‘Pick You Up with Self Esteem‘Kiss of Life ‘Good Mourning featuring Shola Ama & General Levy‘Got To Let Go B side‘Tears To The Floor ‘Bruises ‘Peaches‘Miracle‘Hearts In Danger
