Black Pumas return with the announcement of their second album, Chronicles of a Diamond
Seven-time GRAMMY-nominated duo Black Pumas – AKA singer/songwriter Eric Burton and guitarist/producer Adrian Quesada – also release their brand new single.
Co-written and co-produced by Burton and Quesada, "More Than A Love Song" comes with additional production by Grammy-winning John Congleton.
Explaining the lyrical content, Burton reveals “"More Than a Love Song" is a message I borrowed from my Uncle Steve. As a songwriter and caregiver, he’d listen to me write songs from afar and if I were lucky he’d have a pointer or two for me. ‘Life is more than a love song.’”
Shot on location in Los Angeles, the music video for "More Than A Love Song" was directed by Giraffe Studios (Juliana and Nicole Giraffe whose credits include Sharon Van Etten).
Chronicles of a Diamond brings the band’s singular vision to life with more power, passion, and originality than ever before. Produced by Quesada and primarily mixed by six-time Grammy Award winner Shawn Everett (Alabama Shakes, The War on Drugs), the ten-song LP finds Burton taking the role of co-producer and infusing his free-spirited musicality into every track.
Last year, Adrian Quesada announced his new solo album Boleros Psicodélicos.
