Aphrose [2023] - Good Love [LRK Records]

LRK Records continue to trail blaze this year. Hot on the heels of Claire Davis' excellent debut solo album "Get It Right" on 21 Apr '23 (which is gaining lots of plaudits) they have announced their latest signing, Toronto based Aphrose (Joanna Deborah Mohammed). 

We posted "Good Love" almost two weeks ago from promo and it is officially released digitally today (19 May) It is from a forthcoming, sophomore, neo soul album due later this year. Her first album was "Element" in 2019. Based on her first album and the new single (as well as previous singles) the new album is shaping up  to be a must have.

The song was written by Aphrose with producer trio SafeSpaceship (Scott McCannell, Chino DeVilla and Ben Macdonald) who also performed on the recording along with another Toronto artist Kyla Charter.

Alphrose tells us that "'Good Love' is about accepting the love that we so often deny ourselves because we feel undeserving. When the world feels out of control, there's a safe space where you can go to where you feel seen, understood and accepted; that's the 'Good Love' I'm talking about".

The LRK connection is Claire Davis, also from Toronto, as Aphrose sang harmony backing vocals on her current album "Get It Right". In addition, she has provided BGVs for the likes of Daniel Caesar, Lee Fields & The Expressions, Jessie Reyez, and Charlotte Day Wilson and toured with Chantal Kreviazuk & Raine Maida.

Aphrose lived many a blog visitor's dream as her Trinidadian parents owned a record store in the city's West End. She grew up listening to Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson.

The single is available to pre-order now on 7" vinyl from LRK Records.
