ABOUT CYNTHIA ERIVO:
Cynthia Erivo’s sophomore album I Forgive You marks a bold – and vulnerable – new chapter in the Grammy®, Emmy®, and Tony® Award-winning actress, singer, author as well as SAG, Golden Globe®, and 3x Academy Award® nominee’s artistry. The tenderhearted 20-track LP is a soft testimony of her life, a haunting plea to be witnessed with an open heart. The album is split into four parts: a breakup, something new, the deepening of a connection, and acceptance. Each part is divided by haunting interludes where Cynthia’s voice is the only instrument. Blending the sounds of pop, R&B, folk, Britpop, hip-hop, wailing, and gospel, I Forgive You leaps headfirst into the most vulnerable and impassioned moments of her life, a slow-baked reminder that we’re all just flesh and bone. The good and the bad, and everything in between, make up the stories of our lives, and Cynthia Erivo is a sight to behold.
