Life & Livin' It

Sinkane, the New York-based project of multi-instrumentalist and producer Ahmed Gallab.

Recorded at Sonic Ranch Studios in El Paso, Texas, and once again produced by Gallab with lyrics and help from longtime collaborator Greg Lofaro, 'Life & Livin' It' draws from the best elements of Sinkane's previous records: the slinky funk and soul grooves are there, so are the sparkling melodies with roots in sub-Saharan Africa.

True to its name, 'Life & Livin' It' is an album about all kinds of experiences. When Ahmed Gallab sings, he sounds unafraid yet vulnerable. But while he once sang of feeling like he was on the planet Mars, Ahmed is now firmly grounded on Earth. He's no longer searching for his home - he has created a home for himself.

There's a party there, and 'Life & Livin' It' is playing on the stereo. You are invited.
