Lose Yourself In The Irresistible Appeal Of Telana's 'New Age Soul' EP

With the brooding soundscapes and introspective hues of her debut EP 'Aether' having clocked up listens by the hundreds of thousands to establish her in the consciousness of music fans, emerging Los Angeles r&b chanteuse Telana has returned with a more upbeat outlook on life with her just released 'New Age Soul' EP. Taking some time out for herself with the bright, celebratory vibe of 'Me Time' while giving in to the giddy appeal of the object of her affection with the mellow, dreamy reminiscence of 'Lose My Cool', the sophisticated polish of the Cam 'Obi-produced EP closes out with the insouciant swagger of her duet with Overdoz on 'Everything' as Telana proves the jazzy confidence of her sultry vocal delivery is equally adept at feeling the groove as it is at articulating the most sensitive of emotional truths. Dedicating the EP to the 'loving memory of uncle Kirv, the man who taught me to get groovy with it', Telena continues to showcase the kind of effortless self-possesion and maturely intuitive ear that makes her an irresistible addition to the contemporary r&b scene.
