Enji announces forthcoming album, Sonor
Mongolian singer Enji has returned with news of her forthcoming album, Sonor, alongside the release of new single, "Ulbar".
Ulbar is the Mongolian word for the colour the sky is cast during sunset. Speaking of the track, Enji says: “I often miss out on sunsets, because my mind is still racing in the pace of the day. Not long ago, I watched an ‘ordinary’ sunset, following every color and their shifts - always blending, merging and inviting others. The colors melted from gold into amber, as if the sun was cooling down. This song talks about that scene.”
With Sonor, Enji continues to evolve as an artist, expanding her sound into something more fluid and accessible. Whilst Enji’s musical foundations remain sturdy, with a band of world renowned jazz artists and all tracks on the record sung in Mongolian, Sonor leans into melody and storytelling with a newfound clarity, opening her music to a wider audience.
Enji will embark on an EU/UK tour later this year, including a performance at Stone Nest in London on 14 May.
Sonor is due on 2 May via Squama Recordings.
