There’s something tender about the delivery from Michael Kiwanika throughout his Home Again release that always keeps us coming back for more. The 2012 Mercury Prize nominee seems to have a certain candidness and comfort as a songwriter, displaying a musical etiquette on this debut album that’s been unparalleled in his craft for years. The popularity of the soulful songwriter has grown equally proportional, making him a hot ticket to experience live (festivals, club dates, anywhere!) on both sides of the Atlantic. So needless to say, Kiwanuka showcases potential to be one of the most relevant songwriters of the decade, and we won’t be surprised to see Home Again as a recurring target on many 2012 year-end lists.
Needless to say, if you haven’t checked out this album, then we highly recommend that you do. In fact, we’d like you to experience it so much that we’re giving away a copy of Mr Kiwanuka’s Home Again debut release on 12″ wax to one lucky reader! Enter for your chance to win by dropping us a line here. Just say that you want to be entered in the Michael Kiwanuka drawing. Our winner will be picked at random next weekend (10/20) so keep your eye on those inboxes and more updates on Kiwanuka to follow. Good luck!
