Among its 13 new songs, the album’s first single “Vaporize” is currently Top 10 “Greatest Gainer”at AAA radio, jumping into the Top 15 at the format according to Mediabase. The official music video for the single premiered yesterday on People.com. Check it out HERE!
Building anticipation for the record’s release, LEE performed a stunning three-song set on CBS Saturday last weekend. Watch “Vaporize,”“Till You Come Back Through,” and “Walls.”
In addition, SPIRIT has drawn early critical acclaim from various tastemakers. Billboard wrote, “AMOS LEE is ready to take his fans on a journey down to Memphis for a little bit of old school soul.” Huffington Post initially premiered “Vaporize,” while American Songwriter debuted the title track and claimed, “The soulful piano ballad adopts the perspective of the anonymous street singer, who, as LEE imagines him, plays music to ‘feel the spirit.’” “Till You Come Back Through” debuted on Relix who wrote, “It draws on a range of sounds that have influenced him.”
Next up, LEE hits the road on a highly anticipated North American headline tour this fall, including stops in New York at the legendary Radio City Music Hall on September 10, Chicago at the iconic Chicago Theater on October 28, and an already SOLD OUT show in Los Angeles at The Theater at The Ace Hotel on November 11. The full itinerary is enclosed.
AMOS LEE continues to excite fans worldwide. His most recent album, Mountains Of Sorrow, Rivers Of Song, earned acclaim from The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Paste, and More. Previous offering, Mission Bell, took #1 on the Billboard Top 200. Along the way, he has perform on late night television shows Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and the Late Show with David Letterman. In addition to being musical guest for The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Tavis Smiley on PBS.
