Even if you think you haven’t heard soulful British indie-folk artist Michael Kiwanuka, you probably have—especially if you’ve ever tuned in to the HBO drama series Big Little Lies, for which his song “Cold Little Heart” was used as the intro theme. But the singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist has really been coming into his own ever since he stepped onto the scene in 2012 with Home Again; his 2016 sophomore album Love & Hate was nominated for numerous awards in Europe, and peaked at number one on the UK albums charts. And now us Americans are finally catching on. Kiwanuka, his new 14-track LP, has also been met with critical acclaim. Kiwanuka welcomes you into his musical world with the original sounding “You Ain’t The Problem,” followed by “Rolling,” which kind of sounds like it could be plucked from 1970. Get to the Roseland if you want to gently rock out for a couple hours, and especially to hear Kiwanuka play the drawn out climax to album highlight “Hero,” no doubt backed by stellar accompaniment. by Jenni Moore
