Homer aka: Homer Steinweiss, is known for his work as a drummer, multi-instrumentalist and producer. Today, he shares the track “So Get Up!” featuring MINOVA and Michael Rault, the latest single from his debut album Ensatina due November 15th via Big Crown Records.

Homer () started making music when he was just a teenager. He’s drummed for nearly every major modern soul group and his distinctive stickwork helped blend his unique sound into the mainstream via Amy Winehouse and Sharon Jones. He has also drummed for Clairo, Solange, Adele and many more. Steinweiss is now stepping to the forefront as both musician and producer, and has announced his first solo album released under his Homer moniker.

Ensatina is a reflection of who Homer is now and a testament to how struggle often brings about a needed change. Homer was dealing with considerable emotional turbulence; at the same time that his band Holy Hive broke up, a long term personal relationship also fell apart putting Homer in an uncertain place mentally. The fallout was significant enough for him to seek professional help. “I was going through these super manic highs and then very depressive lows,” Homer describes. “And being in all that, it’s just so tough to imagine that the other side is there, that it’ll be ok.” But, with time, professional help, and support from friends and family, Homer made it through and has been forever changed. This album is a product of that period of his life.
