Leon Bridges and Khruangbin are once again gazing upon the Lone Star state sky, releasing a new joint project titled Texas Moon. It’s a sequel to their well-received 2020 EP Texas Sun.
The two Texas-based collaborators reunite with a shared taste in tavern-made, atmospheric soul to lay more groundwork on displaying well-crafted musicianship.
Songs like the appreciative, funk-fueled “Doris” and the steamy, guitar-laden “Chocolate Hills” make this hard to deny.
Because Bridges has released another collaborative project with Khruangbin, it does not mean he’s given up on his latest album Gold-Diggers Sound by a long shot.
The set, nominated for Best R&B Album at the 2022 Grammys, is getting the tremendous support of forthcoming show dates, including a European jaunt featuring KIRBY as his special guest and his newly-announced Boundless Tour.
Bridges also will appear at several festivals over the next few months.
In tandem with his historic Gold-Diggers Sound Grammy recognition, Bridges is looking to win again for Best Traditional R&B Performance. His Robert Glasper-featured track “Born Again“ is nominated.
