Leon Bridges - Gold-Diggers Sound (July 23, 2021)

Gold-Diggers Sound is the new album from Leon Bridges. This R&B collection is birthed from extended late nights at the Los Angeles, California studio of the same name. The album celebrates Leon's immersive experience of creating music in the same East Hollywood room where he lived, worked and drank over the course of two years. The soulful collaboration between Leon as an artist and the space itself was so encompassing that he chose to name the album after the studio complex.

"River" is one of my all time favorite songs, excited for anything and everything Leon does

 

Really enjoyed my first listen through of this. It left a stronger first impression than Good Thing.

 

I felt the exact opposite lol. I definitely like it but it didn’t hit me as hard. Hopefully it grows on me. Killer horn arrangements though

 

Seeing live tonight for the first time here in Oslo; soooooo stoked. Getting in line an hour before opening to ensure I get front rail

 

So good

Seeing him tonight and making a thing of it; dinner and a hotel right next to the venue, this is the view
