Andreya Triana is a name you’ll recognise from her vocal collaborations with Flying Lotus Bonobo and Lapalux. The Londoner is a former RBMA attendee and has been biding her time over the last few years since releasing her debut album Lost Where I Belong on Ninja Tune. Now she’s ready for her second album, Giants, out in May.
The lead single ‘Gold’ is a stomping soul track that puts Triana’s voice in a poppier context than before. Check out that and a Fort Romeau remix too:

It’s her second album! Debut was the brilliant Bonobo-produced Lost Where I Belong from several years ago
Thanks for that. Should have copped that as I’ve heard it but it was too early in the morning.
No prob! Sorry for the shameless plug, but could I interest you in checking out my own debut? I’m also an ex-Bonobo live band member. You can find it on Bandcamp or Spotify under Strawboy – Tidal Islands
Ah shit, thanks. Should have realised that – I’ve heard it!
