We’re thrilled for you to experience our upcoming album with the legendary Ebo Taylor! What do you think of the singles we’ve released so far?
“Feeling” is @ebo.taylor’s earnest tribute to the meaning of life: love. With heart wrenching vocals over a syncopated drum pattern, a pulsating organ reminds us that no matter what, our hearts beat as one. This song has a togetherness that represents the undeniable bond between its creators: Jazz Is Dead founders @adrianyounge and @alishaheed with Ebo Taylor and his musical family.“Feeling” stands out as one of the most vulnerable and personal vocal renderings from Afrobeat legend Ebo Taylor.
Ebo Taylor JID022 is available for preorder now at jazzisdead.com.
