New music from the man, Shafiq Husayn
is always a cause to celebrate around these parts.
Today, we get a new song from himself & his growing community of
likeminded artists in L.A., dubbed The Dove Society.
They all come together to form “Twelve,”
a breezy group singalong that contains all the elements
that you’d hope for in a Shafiq production -
70′s jazz arrangements, soul harmonies,
reaffirming lyricism, sprinkles of futurism – it’s all there.
The song was released today as a free download
included in Ms. Maiya Norton‘s Sonic Boom series
of compilations for NYC media hub, Giant Step.
You can stream “Twelve” here
before downloading the single,
or the full compilation, below.
