Flutist, composer, and vocalist Elena Pinderhughes has announced an October 23 release date for her debut album i hope you feel it too. Known as one of the most sought after collaborators across genres, the album marks the multi-dimensional musician stepping into the spotlight. The announcement comes with the newest single ‘ring ring,’ where listeners can hear her range between jazz and R&B become distinctly her own: flute steps into the role of lead vocal over an infectious groove that feels soulful, effortless and impossible not to move to.
“‘ring ring’ is really about feeling,” says Pinderhughes. “I wanted the flute to lead a groove that felt soulful, effortless and impossible not to move to. It’s one of those songs I hope people don’t have to think too hard about. You can just put it on, and before you know it, it’s become part of your day.” ‘ring ring’ follows Elena’s recently released debut single as a solo artist ‘life goes on’ (feat. Immanuel Wilkins). In addition to Wilkins, frequent collaborator Chief Adjuah and her brother Samora Pinderhughes appear on i hope you feel it too.
