Snoh Aalegra returns with new single ‘Be My Summer’.
The Iranian Swedish-born artist is someone to cherish, with her slim but immaculate catalogue expanding the horizons of R&B. Each note seems to come from an entirely personal place, with Snoh’s 2021 album ‘Temporary Highs In The Violet Skies’ representing a magnificent statement.
Clash writer Shahzaib Hussain opined…
On ‘Temporary Highs…’, sleepy mid-tempos bleed into one another and that may be the point: For Aalegra love exists on a continuum, love is meditative, love is holy. As the summer reaches its apex, Snoh Aalegra’s chronicles of yearning desire will be the soundtrack once again.
New single ‘Be My Summer’ is her first in two years, and while it connects to her broader work it also represents something of a new R&B pathway. An artist who continually moves forwards, Snoh Aalegra eases herself into a fresh chapter, working alongside Michael Uzowuru and Ari PenSmith to produce this majestic new statement.
Tune in now.
