Stand for myself

Yola

Beskrivelse

Summary: The anthemic new album from Yola is a timeless masterpiece marking an idiosyncratic sonic shift that will defy all expectation. A sophisticated and diverse sonic mix of symphonic soul and classic pop, tracing an expansive musical thread to Yola's most eclectic musical inspirations. Yola's inimitable vocals share nuanced stories of allyship, Black feminine strength through vulnerability, collective awakening, and loving connection from the sexual to the social. For Yola, living is more than merely surviving.

"By rights, Yola should be trumpeted as one of the UK's hottest exports. Her 2019 debut Walk Through Fire was nominated for four Grammys; she plays Sister Rosetta Tharpe in Baz Luhrmann's forthcoming Elvis biopic. But this Bristol singer, born Yolanda Quartey, has gone native in Nashville, pairing her elastic, retro voice with a vintage, soulful roll of the kind favoured by Black Keys' Dan Auerbach, who returns as producer here".

"Before the pandemic altered lives around the world, Yola was on the verge of a commercial breakthrough-awards-show exposure, a looming tour, a meaty movie role. But Stand for Myself, with its themes of inner fortitude only brightening the white-hot star at its center, vaults Yola to another place in the pop world, with her boundless curiosity and vocal brawn establishing her as a knowing, honest voice for those who need help summoning their own strength from within".

"Yola, who already has a host of Grammy nominations to her name, is poised for even greater heights. Stand For Myself is a resounding success as confidence and talent oozes through each well-crafted note and stunning vocal phrase".
