    Lady Blackbird shares “Let Not (Your Heart Be Troubled)” ahead of her new LP “Slang Spirituals.”
    Aug 26, 2024

    LA-based vocal powerhouse Lady Blackbird has a new album on the way at long last. Entitled Slang Spirituals (due Sep. 13), the record promises to be a no-holds-barred collection of future gospel anthems which hold radical love, acceptance, and impermanence as their central tenets. At least that’s the impression we’re getting from the single “Let Not (Your Heart Be Troubled)” – hear it now as part of this MBE and hit us up via our socials to let us know what you think. Also part of this MBE are LP Giobbi’s latest, Otis Redding taking on a classic track made legendary by The Temptations, and your chance at FREE tix for Moses Sumney at Lodge Room.
