Album Notes & Community Reviews

Rejecting the synthesized perfection of mainstream R&B, 'Acoustic Soul' relies entirely on warm, organic instrumentation and intensely personal lyricism. The singer-songwriter's debut is a highly uplifting, incredibly mellow neo-soul masterpiece dedicated to self-acceptance and spiritual healing.
