Leon Ware - Rainbow Deux

Gatefold double LP

The melodically adventurous soul of Leon Ware continues its expression in his final opus Rainbow Deux, released on double vinyl on September 13th, 2019. The album features new songs recorded and performed by Leon before his health turned, leading to his death on Feb. 23, 2017. Co-produced by Taylor Graves, it has stellar musical contributions from the likes of Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, Ronald Bruner Jr, Rob Bacon and Wayne Linsey.

The entire record is a vibe: mellow, deep and smooth as silk. The lyrical themes are eternal, and the music is elegant, soulful and sensual. As per Leon's wish, the cover artwork presents one of Leon's watercolours, Deux Hearts.
