It was a hit in the chest el conocer su música debido al opening de una serie que me gustó tantíssimo: Big Little Lies. El hit Cold Little Heart pasó a ser mantra in those times @ my life allá por el exitosíssimo año 2017.
A partir de ahí fue que me puse a indagar en su breve discog que me pareció alucinante.
Aquí las gemas que extraje de este talentoso compositor, singer, guitarrista y letrista:
- Kiwanuka Streaming List @ YouTube Music
- Por aquí lo que he escrito relacionado a Kiwanuka
- Acá una redemption song* que me vuela la capocha. Instant classic. Mantra. Soul tenderness.
- Y por aquí una breve bio de Kiwanuka
Plus un video de una live session que me encanta:
Muy Pink Floyd esos slides de guitarra con el synth, no!? Instant crush.

Standing now
Calling all the people here to see the show
Calling for my demons now to let me go
I need something, give me something wonderful
I believe
She won't take me somewhere I'm not supposed to be
You can't steal the things that god has given me
No more pain and no more shame and misery
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
Love and hate
How much more are we supposed to tolerate
Can't you see there's more to me than my mistakes
Sometimes I get this feeling makes me hesitate
I believe
She won't take me somewhere I'm not supposed to be
You can't steal the things that god has given me
No more pain and no more shame and misery
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
You can't take me down
You can't break me down
I can see a place of trouble
And I'm on the verge
For the love of everybody
I did something wrong
Now I feel some days of trouble (I would stay way)
In the hospital (I would stay way)
For the love of everybody (I would stay way)
But behind a wall (I would stay way)
Standing now
Calling all the people here to see the show
Calling for my demons now to let me go
I need something, give me something wonderful
