Lee Fields has set himself for another big year. While his rise to the top of the world of revivalist soul has found him with a number of top-notch records already in his pocket, the powerhouse singer is prepared to take things to the next level. Teaming up with Truth & Soul, a label backed by Jeff Silverman and Leon Michels, Lee Fields has cooked up what is sounding like his strongest record to date. Exemplified especially in a cover like “Magnolia”, which receives the visual treatment today.
Watch the video above. Tour dates are below. Emma Jean is set to drop June 3.
