Welcome to Episode #147 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which sees Imran connect with Leona Berlin.
The always sensational Berlin-based singer, songwriter and producer returns with her third full-length album, 'ELEVATE'. Berlin's music has consistently touted the benefits of individuality, self-awareness and self-confidence and the importance of those values as a starting point to move forward. Whether it be earlier single releases including 'Cage', 'Feminine Energy' or more recent efforts with 'Jealousy', Berlin has consistently created statements of anthemic impact that continue to position her as the benchmark for today's R&B and neo-soul artists.
We're incredibly grateful for Leona's time which includes us recounting her recent travels to India and Nepal, the release of the new album, the creative process and we discuss Leona's relationship with AI and it's burgeoning impact on the art and world around us.

Welcome to Episode #130 of the Blue-in-Green:PODCAST which this week sees Imran connect with the immeasurably talented, Eki Shola.
As a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Eki has cultivated a strong reputation for her inspired and all-encompassing approach to music-making. Always revered for her ability to incorporate various genres and styles within her music - from jazz to neo-soul to twinges of electronica - her current, fifth album release '還 (Kaeru)', ushers in an even more ambitious creative scope...
Recorded in Japan alongside a team of musicians, the combination of cultural styles breeds sensational results and provides an incredible new aesthetic to anything we've heard Shola bless previously. An album that finds itself immersed within the themes of identity and the concept of home, Eki has long proved herself to be an artist that wears her heart on her sleeve, creating impassioned and sincere music as a result.
We were grateful to catch-up with Eki to discuss the new album, recording and touring the release in Japan, the creative process and her family's deep-rooted connections to music. We'd love to extend a gratious thank you to Eki for her time and for gifting us such a wonderful episode.
