Corinne Bailey Rae unveils second track 'Green Aphrodisiac'
Corinne Bailey Rae has revealed a second song, the sensual Green Aphrodisiac, taken from her forthcoming album The Heart Speaks In Whispers. This smooth tune wass written by Corinne with Paris and Amber Strother from the LA-based future-soul band KING, and features musical contributions from Paris Strother, Esperanza Spalding and Miles Davis-bassist Marcus Miller. Such a refreshing song, smooth and absolutely infectious. Those angelic sweet vocals were missed!
Corinne said:
This song is inspired by intoxicating spring days lying in the grass in the afternoon, blossom and sunlight. The same thing that grows in the garden flows in me in you. Hope you get lost in it!
Green Aphrodisiac follows Corinne’s return last month with ‘Been To The Moon’, both gorgeous tunes from her third studio album, The Heart Speaks In Whispers, set to be released on May 13th (on Good Groove / Virgin EMI). Corinne has been announced as the special guest on international superstar Lionel Richie’s UK tour in June, which includes three nights at The O2, London.
