It’s been a little while since we’ve heard from twins Naomi
and Lisa-Kaindé Díaz, better known as Ibeyi – two years to be precise.
But harrah! The pair are back back with a brand new track, ‘Away
Away’, which makes it feel like Naomi and Lisa-Kaindé have never been away at
all. The track mixes a slightly R&B vibe with some of the familiar, West
African Yorùbá influences that we’ve come to know them for.
Since the release of their self-titled debut album, the duo
have appeared in Beyoncé’s ‘Lemonade’ and released one other track: ‘Lost In My
Mind’. So, could a new record be on the horizon then? Let’s hope it’s not “a
way away”. Okay, we’ll stop now.
Listen to ‘Away Away’ below.
With Bob Vylan, St Vincent, girl in red, Lizzy McAlpine and more.
