Between African music and R&B, young American singer and violinist Sudan Archives offers a new exotic EP released on Stones Throw.
At 23, American Britanny Denise Parks, aka Sudan Archives, has signed her third EP, *Sink*, to the prestigious Stones Throw label. Nothing less. In six tracks, the young woman weaves connections between African sounds and groovy R&B, cosmic folk, and hazy spiderwebs. A violinist, composer, and singer, Sudan Archives says she had a revelation when she discovered the playing of Sudanese violinists, opening up new perspectives on how to approach her instrument and blend it with electronic sounds. Modern yet drawing from a certain form of traditional music, the EP features sensual and confident vocals and soft, catchy melodies.
