Michael Kiwanuka has debuted his new KIWANUKA track "Solid Ground" as a COLORS show.

"Solid Ground" is the final single to be lifted from KIWANUKA ahead of its release on Friday (1 November).

It follows on from earlier offerings "Hero" and "You Ain't The Problem".

His third album KIWANUKA follows on from 2016's Love & Hate.

Speaking about the record, Kiwanuka explains, "The last album came from an introspective place and felt like therapy, I guess. This one is more about feeling comfortable in who I am and asking what I want to
say. Like, how could I be bold and challenge myself and the listener? It is about self-acceptance in a more triumphant rather than melancholy way. It’s an album that explores what it means to be a human being today."

"Solid Ground" is out now. Michael Kiwanuka's KIWANUKA album will arrive 1 November via Polydor, and is available to pre-order now. He plays a sold-out show at London's O2 Academy Brixton on 5 March 2020. Find his full live dates.
