ROBESON HD FLAC Album (44kHz/24bit)

On DAVÓNE TINES & THE TRUTH’s new work ROBESON, Tines’ solo recording debut, the musician grapples with the legacy of a hero. Exploding the musical repertoire of Paul Robeson, Tines and his band the Truth—pianist John Bitoy and sound artist Khari Lucas—take listeners on a trip from the stage of Carnegie Hall to the floor of a Moscow hotel room in an attempt to understand an icon not through aspiring to his monumentality, but through connecting to his vulnerability. “Like his predecessor [Paul Robeson], Mr. Tines has always been more than just a performer,"" says the Wall Street Journal, ""using his richly expressive, wide-ranging instrument and theatrical skill to excavate his own stories, dark side and all.”
