Throughout this LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e— his second solo album and first in six years — Moses Boyd doesn’t preach or offer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eanswers. Instead, he makes a record that treats faith as something deeply personal,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eunstable and human — a force that can comfort, unsettle, divide and restore. Gospel is part\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof the language, but not the whole sentence. Across a vocal-heavy set that folds together\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ejazz, soundsystem culture, 808s, choir harmonies and Caribbean rhythm, Boyd asks what\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003esacred music can sound like without arbitrary rules boxing it in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoyd is already one of the most inventive figures in music: a MOBO Award winner, Mercury\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrize-shortlisted artist and a drummer, composer and producer who has spent years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexpanding the possibilities of jazz without ever treating the genre as a museum piece. A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003edecade after “Rye Lane Shuffle” helped introduce his restless imagination to a wider\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaudience, Songs for Sinners feels like a return and a leap forward — an album that\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereintroduces Boyd as a brilliant player and singular artist with a vision that reaches beyond\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecategory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMusically, Songs for Sinners is as open-ended as its themes. It is gospel-influenced, but not\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein the traditional sense.
