Les Nubians' New Album Drops Today

Nu Revolution, the new album from Afro-Parisian chanteuses Les Nubians, drops today from Shanachie Entertainment. Les Nubians blend an array of soulful afrocentric elements to create a truly unique sound. Singing in French and English, mixing various African elements with neo-soul, jazz, funk, and afrobeat this album is definitely in a genre all its own. The sisters sing of a Nu Revolution, bringing love to the forefront of society in place of war and negativity.

Les Nubians are touring the US kicking things off Thursday in Philly. They'll be performing material from their new album and spreading their positive message of love and empowerment ten cities from coast to coast. Definitely check them out when they come near you.
