Michael Kiwanuka – (Home Again)

Esquire recently noted “This time next year, you’re going to be tired of people telling you about Michael Kiwanuka.” He’s a blog, particularly in his native UK, and music geek favorite for good reason. Michael is one of the richest new voices in soul music. It’s exceedingly rare to hear such a young artist with as much gravitas in his song writing and presentation. He doesn’t rush his songs; he draws the listener in and takes them along for a musical ride. His proper full length, Home Again, will be released in the UK the week after SXSW but a few EPs are already available on iTunes and Amazon.  Michael Kiwanuka is poised to have a huge year and I think Esquire called this one perfectly.
