Tori Kelly follows last year’s Inspired by True Events with the five-track project titled Solitude.
The Grammy winner recorded the acoustic guitar-driven compositions at home while quarantining this spring.
With Solitude, Kelly compiled a collection of beautiful songs to further her journey of self-love and self-reflection.
The project opener “Value” relies on acoustic guitar and a contemporary R&B feel to help moderate the story of self-worth after a breakup.
While her thrilling cover of Drake’s “Time Flies” could be named as the project’s centerpiece, it’s “Unbothered” that actually steals the show. The Jorgen Odegard-produced cut welcomes her innate vocal abilities, as she evokes a new sense of confidence.
Above all, Solitude is one of the hottest new releases of the year. The must-hear project is filled with empowerment anthems to get anyone over a summer romance blues.
Kelly will celebrate the release of Solitude with a special concert. Powered exclusively by MelodyVR, the free virtual experience takes place on Wednesday, August 19 at 9 p.m. EST/6 p.m. PT.
