Jalen Ngonda [2023] - Come Around and Love Me [Daptone Records] PROMO


Yet another superb single from Jalen Ngondo is scheduled for release tomorrow (29 Jul) by Daptone. The new single, "Come Around and Love Me", may even be his best to date. If this comes out on vinyl, which it surely will like his previous singles, it will sell like proverbial 'hot cakes' to the UK rare soul scene in particular.

Jalen Ngonda grew up on the outskirts of Washington D.C. (Wheaton, MD) and began musical studies in grade school, where he dabbled in violin, ultimately moving on to the guitar and piano. He is from a musical family and gained inspiration from listening to his father’s collection of Motown albums.

He, like so many before him, cut his teeth in the church where he played organ which helped him raise funds to send him to the Liverpool Institute for the Performing Arts in 2014, He currently resides in London.

He was spotted by Daptone co-founder Neal Sugarman whilst performing a chance, last minute, slot for Jools Holland and he was duly signed and an album was planned but unfortunately it occurred the month before Covid-19 lock down.

The latest single is the title track of a forthcoming album (no date for release has been officially given but we noted it as 9 Aug in a previous post (correction 9 Sep as US day and month are transposed i.e. 09/08 v UK 08/09)) which includes his last three singles (links below).

01 - Come Around And Love Me 
03 - Lost
04 - That's All I Wanted From You
