While AD’s 2011 Year In Review solely focused on full-lengths, I did have a favorite single of the year: Michael Kiwanuka’s “Tell Me A Tale” – a track I wrote about last May. I described Kiwanuka as having “picked up the torch from Terry Callier and Bill Withers,” a sentiment only bolstered after having seen him perform live in December. Kiwanuka released the Home Again EP, (his 3rd) this month. Title track after the jump.

talent like this rarely shows it’s face.
i really dig him but from what i can gather, he doesn’t have a record out stateside? that needs to change.
It’s been on repeat for a while. Hope to see him live soon.
I usually gauge something is good by putting it on while I work and seeing if my wife says anything. About 30 seconds in she asked me who it was.
