Aloe Blacc Celebrates 10th Anniversary Of Lift Your Spirit Album With Deluxe Edition Releases, Out Today

(July 19, 2024) Multi-platinum selling singer-songwriter Aloe Blacc is commemorating the 10th anniversary of his critically acclaimed third studio album Lift Your Spirit with the release of a special deluxe edition from XIX Recordings/Interscope Records/UMe. This deluxe edition, available today, features the original album plus 7 bonus tracks. Additionally, there are two other digital albums being made available for the first time: "Naked (Acapella)" and "Instrumentals.” Since its release in 2014, Lift Your Spirit has resonated with audiences worldwide, featuring hit singles such as "The Man" and "Wake Me Up (Acoustic)." The album reached #4 on the US Billboard Charts and was nominated for Best R&B Album at the GRAMMYs. With production by Pharrell Williams and DJ Khalil, the album’s blend of soul, pop, and folk influences, combined with Blacc’s signature voice and poignant lyrics, has solidified its place in music history.

This deluxe edition offers a comprehensive musical experience. Naked (Acapella) strips away all instrumentation to showcase Blacc’s emotive voice in its purest form while Instrumentals allow fans to enjoy the arrangements that underpin the beloved tracks of Lift Your Spirit. The Digital Deluxe Edition with Bonus Tracks includes the original album along with three additional songs that were previously only available on special editions or in international markets, providing a fresh listening experience for longtime fans and new listeners alike.

"Celebrating a decade of 'Lift Your Spirit' is a profound milestone for me,” says Aloe Blacc. “This album represents a pivotal moment in my career, and I am thrilled to offer fans these new editions that highlight the depth and versatility of the music we created.” He continues, “I hope these unreleased versions inspire and uplift listeners just as the original album did."

Earlier this summer, Aloe Blacc released "Rock My Soul," a two-part EP project where he covered iconic rock songs from the '90s. The project received acclaim from The Today Show, People, Stereogum, and more, featuring standout tracks such as his renditions of No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak,” The White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army,” Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun,” Nirvana’s “Lithium,” and more. This project further showcased Blacc’s versatility and deep appreciation for diverse musical genres.

Aloe Blacc’s next solo album, titled Stand Together is slated for February 2025 with the first single due out in August.  Stay tuned for more news coming soon!
