Album Description
Available in:
Royal is the sixth studio album by Nigerian-German singer–songwriter Ayọ. The 12 track album was released on 31 January 2020 on CD, vinyl and as a MP3 download.
The first single from the album, "Beautiful", which was composed by the singer was released in October 2019. The second single "Rest assured" was released in January 2020. For both singles a music video was published.
Ayọ originally planned to fill the album mainly with cover versions of her own songs from her first album Joyful but shortly before the production started she decided against it and to record new songs. However, some cover versions of songs she especially loves from other artists are included, like "Né Quelque Part" from Maxime le Forestier (the only song on the album Ayọ sings in French), "Throw It Away" from jazz singer Abbey Lincoln, "Afro Blue" composed by Mongo Santamaría and made famous by John Coltrane and Lhasa's song "Fool’s Gold".
While on previous albums Ayọ nearly always played the guitar herself she decided to concentrate on this album on her voice as instrument and therefore she plays the guitar only on the track "Fix Me Up".
The album was produced by Freddy Koella (guitarist of Bob Dylan and Willy DeVille) who also plays the guitar. Besides Koella, her band included Gaël Rakotondrabe (piano), Laurent Vernerey (contrabass) and Denis Benarrosh (percussion).
