“Love Lane” will be released worldwide on the 5th of May 2023. The EP is a collaborative project from afro-fusion singer-songwriter Dwin, The Stoic and producer/composer Rhaffy. The pair have worked on several projects together including co-producing most of Dwin, The Stoic’s solo work and the 2020 debut album from indie group Ignis Brothers, which Dwin, The Stoic is a founding member of.
“Love Lane” is a collection of five intimate stories that transport the audience to various pivotal moments in love and relationships. Each track is a detour off the fictional street called Love Lane, giving listeners a glimpse into the ups and downs that come with opening your heart to another.
The EP also features Abuja/Toronto-based act Efe Oraka and US-based rapper Kelechief on the first and last songs respectively. Throughout the EP, the pair show off their skills and dexterity.
