Jalen Ngonda honors the rich tradition of soul but gives it a contemporary twist. With his second album, 'Doctrine Of Love,' he convincingly continues the line of his acclaimed debut, 'Come Around And Love Me': vintage soul, steeped in Stax and Motown influences, translated into the present. The Maryland-born, London-based singer signed with Daptone Records and quickly rose from club artist to festival favorite, with performances at Glastonbury and We Out Here, among others.

Ngonda's distinctive falsetto, his love for analog sounds, and his irresistible sense of melody make him one of the most exciting new voices in modern soul. Live, everything comes together: classic charm, genuine emotion, and a sound that feels like 1968, yet is unmistakably of our time.
