SINKANE announces new album ‘Life & Livin’ It’ & Shares New video & live dates

By Kieran Webber

Sinkane has confirmed details of his new studio album ‘Life & Livin’ It’, set for release on February 10th, 2017 worldwide via City Slang. The news comes with a new single, accompanying video and worldwide tour dates

The new single infuses the best element of soul, jazz and funk with a tasty hint of Arabic and African soundscapes that flutter ever so gently in the background, but it isn’t the sound of this song that stands out it is it’s poignent message of positivity.

Ahmed Gallab explains; “Times are tough. Struggles have always existed in our lives. But hope, love and the power of positivity help us stay alive. It is what inspires me to wake up in the morning, make music, and, ultimately, connect with people. To my sisters who ache, my brothers losing strength: we don’t need to be saved. We’ll make our own way. Kulu shi tamaam! As long as we try we’re all going to be alright!”
