After two EPs and an illuminating start to his career, Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Venna releases his debut album, MALIK. “Every experience, every memory, every conversation, anything new, any encounter has influenced how this album sounds. I might like a particular guitar tone from it, and then I bring it into my world. Everything has come and conjured into one place, and it's beautiful to also hear and see,” Venna says. “The album MALIK was named by my mother 26 years before the album was made. A strong name that means King or leader in Arabic. A name that I've lived with all my life. A name that my nearest and dearest have called me & a name that I learnt to become.” Featuring vocals from Jorja Smith, CARI, Leon Thomas, Smino, MIKE, and himself, MALIK is where listeners can get lost and find themselves again. The album also features a long list of musicians including Rocco Palladino, Elijah Fox, AoD, J Warner, Marco Bernardis and longtime collaborator, Yussef Dayes.
