Kelly Finnigan - A Lover Was Born (Cyan Blue Vinyl)

• Available October 13th, 2024.
• All ship orders including this title will be held back.

Distance as a measure of time and place informs Kelly Finnigan's A Lover Was Born with a grit and grace that turns passion into virtue. The latest solo release from The Monophonics frontman roots itself in the best traditions of midwest soul. Throughout A Lover Was Born, Finnigan's voice is raw and earthy - in the best tradition of R&B shouters like Otis Redding, Lee Moses, and David Ruffin. The songs on A Lover Was Born reconfigure the spliced and sampled DNA of hip hop (extracted by crate diggers like Dilla and RZA) to create something new, underscoring both the spectrum and depth of soul while making a case to the timelessness of Finnigan's sound.

Limited Edition CYAN BLUE vinyl produced by Colemine Records in 2024.
