HERITAGE: Singer-Songwriter Cleo Sol Blesses Us With This Beautiful Rendition Of "Why Don't You" (2018)


April 08, 2022

If you're a recent convert to the church of Cleo Sol, then you're certainly fortunate that you've got a lot to dig into. Her recent critically-revered Mother album was probably your gateway in that case, but before you move on to Rose In The Dark and the SAULT albums, take a few minutes to marvel at this tender performance of "Why Don't You".

Lifted from her debut EP Winter Songs, it was the opening jewel of a stunning four-tracker. For the uninitiated, it seemed to appear from nowhere, but the truth is that by this point Cleo had already put in years of work, perfecting her craft and shining next to established crooners like Angel. So when Winter Songs dropped, it was the sound of a true great ready to take her place at the top table in the UK R&B scene.

No wonder she's up for two Ivor Novellos.
