Luther Makes A Triumphant Return With ‘Hole In My Heart’

Published

on

After a decade-long hiatus, Luther reemerges with Hole In My Heart, a track that confirms his enduring mastery of R&B-infused pop. From the first shimmering guitar notes to the subtle brass flourishes, the song is an elegant fusion of live instrumentation and modern production techniques. It’s immediately evident that Luther has spent the past ten years honing a sound that bridges the classic and the contemporary, a delicate balance few artists achieve with such ease.

Drawing from a kaleidoscope of influences—Chubby Checker’s early rock-and-roll energy, the harmonic sophistication of Stevie Wonder, and the experimental bravado of David Bowie—Luther crafts a track that is both nostalgic and refreshingly original. The production glimmers with sonic surprises: jazzy chord changes, playful rhythmic accents, and fleeting psychedelic touches, all of which coalesce beneath Luther’s effortlessly expressive vocals. There is a palpable sense of joy in the music, a reminder of why listeners have cherished his work over the decades.

Hole In My Heart is more than a comeback; it’s a statement of artistic vitality. Luther demonstrates an enviable capacity to weave together genres without ever losing coherence, producing a track that is immediately accessible yet richly layered for repeated listening. For fans of R&B, jazz-infused pop, and boundary-pushing songwriting, this single is a celebration of creativity and a thrilling introduction to the next chapter of Luther’s musical journey.

London-born, South Africa-based folk artist Seth Tabatznik unveils his latest single, “Shining For Love”, a luminous and heartfelt composition that celebrates life, love and the natural world.

Built around layers of atmospheric acoustic guitars, devotional strings, soft shakers, and Seth’s evocative vocal delivery, “Shining For Love” captures a sense of reverence that feels timeless. Each element moves with intention, allowing the song to bloom from a whisper into a radiant, full-bodied expression of gratitude and connection.

This song came to me in a forest, spoken by the elements around me”, Seth shares. “It was like nature took my pen and transcribed the lyrics into my notebook, accompanied by a simple four-chord progression. I love how the song builds and accelerates as a celebration of life, love, and nature. Every sound, every movement, is her way of expressing herself as she is one being, of which we are a part, not apart.”

Now based in the Western Cape mountains of South Africa, Seth’s music is steeped in a deep respect for the land and the lessons it offers. His work bridges folk traditions, medicine music, and contemporary songwriting, echoing influences from Bon Iver, Noah Kahan, and Nick Mulvey, who also mentored Seth during the development of his forthcoming album.

With “Shining For Love,” Seth Tabatznik continues to carve his own path; one defined by warmth, sincerity and an unwavering devotion to the beauty of being alive.
