Nubiyan Twist unveils a preview of their forthcoming album with the release of the soulful track ‘All The Same'.
This captivating piece showcases the honeyed vocals of longtime feature Ria Moran, complemented by the distinct presence of core member Nick Richards. The song effortlessly navigates through broken beat, R&B, and UK jazz influences, weaving a narrative that delves into the yearning for transparency and a renewed sense of identity, exploring anxiety and loss from when the world appeared to stop.
Bandleader Tom Excell says “It's always a joy to collaborate with Ria (who joined us as lead vocalist for our last album tour) and this track is a beautiful combination of voices alongside our very own Nick Richards”.
The track will appear on their fourth album 'Find Your Flame', scheduled for release on 3rd May. On the album, Nubiyan Twist have enlisted the iconic Nile Rodgers, Nigerian Afrobeat luminary Seun Kuti, celebrated Malian singer and musician Mamani Keita as well as homegrown UK talent corto.alto, Ria Moran, K.O.G. & NEONE the Wonderer.
The album also marks a significant evolution for the group, welcoming Sheffield-based vocalist Aziza Jaye to the forefront.
Nubiyan Twist tours during April-May-June 2024 with dates in Lyme Regis, Oxford, Manchester, Leeds, Gateshead, Brighton, Cambridge, Cardiff, Bristol, Sheffield and London; with corto.alto and Heritage now announced as support.
