THE DIVINE TRINITY

Description

For soul-reggae artist Natty, music is not just a pleasure; it is also a healing power. The singer-songwriter from London has embarked on a remarkable journey of creative and personal discovery in recent years, taking his partner and children to the Jamaican countryside to live off the grid and off the land, while immersing himself in in-depth studies of the mental and physiological properties of music. The result of this journey is Natty's expansive fourth album, The Divine Trinity. Across nine tracks, he uses his signature vocal power and uplifting melodies to explore everything from earthy funk grooves to guitar-scratched desire, emphatic oral pleas, and spacious, layered reggae. Partnering once again with his long-time band The Rebelship, Natty also expands his reggae-influenced sound through the instrumental frequencies of South Asian tablas, Zimbabwean mbira, and wooden flutes. "There are so many things I've never done before on this record," he explains.
