BRITISH SOUL SINGER'S DEBUT ALBUM HOME AGAIN OUT NOW



SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- British soul singer Michael Kiwanuka is set to make his debut on PBS' esteemed live music program Austin City Limits on June 10(th). The taping will be live-streamed directly from ACL's stage at The Moody Theater in Austin, TX, via the show's YouTube Channel http://www.youtube.com/austincitylimitstv. Those who subscribe to the channel will be notified when the stream is scheduled to air, as well as when anything related to the show is announced.

The London-born Kiwanukahas been making waves with his debut album, the lush, acoustic-driven Home Again, which reached No. 4 on the British charts, spawned four singles, and went Top 10 around the world, earning the 24-year-old singer, songwriter, and musician a gig opening Adele's 2011 tour and a slot at the 2012 ACL Festival. Listeners have connected with Kiwanuka's blues-folk sound and timeless, soulful voice, which has led to comparisons to such artists as Bill Withers, Terry Callier, and John Martyn. Last year Kiwanuka was announced the winner of the prestigious BBC Sound of 2012 poll, which has also been won by Jessie J, Florence + the Machine, and Ellie Goulding.
