Happiness Anytime out September 25th on Columbia Records, finds Bridges returning to the warmth of Coming Home while embracing the groove and adventurous spirit of his celebrated collaborations with Khruangbin. On Happiness Anytime, Bridges intertwines with the signature production sensibilities of Jungle's J Lloyd and Lydia Kitto to create something entirely new—an expansive, borderless sound that pushes Bridges into thrilling new territory. There are echoes of Fela Kuti, the wanderlust of Paul Simon's The Rhythm of the Saints, and the warmth of Jorge Ben, but the album never feels referential. Above all, it is unmistakably Leon Bridges: his singular voice, effortless charisma, and melodic instincts transforming those influences into something wholly his own. It's an album built for long days and warm nights and will undoubtedly become the unofficial soundtrack of this summer. “For me, happiness is not a feeling that you chase,” Bridges says,“I want this album to be something that lingers with people and lingers in people's bones. There’s this feeling that we have to fix the problems of the world; you feel inadequate or it can be debilitating. My role is to be light. I hope that comes across with this album.” With Happiness Anytime, Bridges set out with a desire not only to find joy but to find movement again. Early in his career he was out in front dancing, something that had waned in his recent career. He wanted to get back to making music to dance to, music to excise the stresses of modern life and to feel grounded in the rhythms of the present. A captivating live performer, Bridges has graced many of the world's most prestigious stages. He made his Saturday Night Live debut as musical guest, performing "Smooth Sailin'" and "River," and has delivered beloved performances for NPR's Tiny Desk Concert, Austin City Limits, and countless major festivals around the globe. Leon continues to bridge the past and present, honoring the rich traditions of soul, R&B, gospel, and folk while forging a singular voice that has made him one of the most respected and influential artists of his generation. Now he brings The Happiness Anytime Tour to countries and cities around the world.
