With every given opportunity, Leeds-based Hip-Hop/Trip Hop outfit Foldhave excelled themselves, and proving to be a more than reliable source of incredible music – two LPs, Fold (2015) & We’re The Ones (2019), and a string of singles and EPS are testament to.

Fold are back with a brand new single ‘Concrete Things’; a tribute to African-American playwright Lorraine Hansberry (the first African-American to have a play performed on Broadway back in 1959). ‘Concrete Things’ comes “in defiance of these dark times…in case it might bring joy to anyone,” and sure we all know a wee bit of joy wouldn’t go amiss right now.Featuring vocal samples of Hansberry, ‘Concrete Things’shuffles along seductive union of infectious funky groove and pillowy soft beats amid a lavish blend of glistening strings, warm brass and smooth, soulful vibes. It is bursting with warmth, richness and joyful vibes and it casts one hell of spell upon our ears. Never afraid to speak their minds, they blend a powerful social consciousness with an enviable creativity to mold something thoroughly powerful, unique and memorable; and the new single is no different – simply magnificent!
