May 6 street date. Afro-Cuban, French twins Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Díaz, known to the world as Ibeyi, have returned with their new album "Spell 31". Featuring 10 new songs, written, produced and recorded by Ibeyi, who worked again with their long-time producer Richard Russell (Ash, Ibeyi), over the course of 2021 in London, "Spell 31" features appearances from Jorja Smith, Pa Salieu, BERWYN, Ibeyi's father and mother and a reimagining of Black Flag's "Rise Above". Inspired by a poem that Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi came across during the first recording session for the new album, "Spell 31", taken from The Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, not only reawakened in them the divine powers of Ibeyi, it became the premise for the first song they recorded for the new album ("Made Of Gold") and the album title. Since the release of their critically-acclaimed sophomore album Ash and the duo's globally acclaimed, eponymous debut album, Ibeyi's music has garnered fans and collaborators in some of the most iconic artists of today including Beyoncé, Alvin Ailey, JR, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Prince, Roy Hargrove, Adele, Kamasi Washington, David Byrne and Emicida; a result of Ibeyi's uniquely, captivating blend of Yoruban music with modern jazz, pop, electronic, soul and hip-hop.
