Homer Steinweiss is one of the most in demand drummers in the world, having played with the likes of Clairo, Solange, Adele, and many more. The multi-artist is now stepping to the forefront as both musician and producer, today, he has announced Ensatina, his first solo album released under his Homer moniker, the album will drop on November 15th via Big Crown Records.

Ensatina is a reflection of who he 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.

Today, Homer also shared the album’s first single, “Deep Sea (feat. Hether).” The love song is set over a back beat with guitar and trumpet lines complimenting Hether’s vividly romantic lyrics. There is even a sweet nod to Homer’s now wife in the lyrics. The track between the friends came together quickly, with Homer noting, “It’s my favorite song on the album. Hether, as a friend, saw me through my highs and lows and this track captures the full energy of what was happening during the time we were recording.”
