Description

140g neon green swirl vinyl in a gatefold jacket

The Dip is a Seattle-based Rhythm and Blues band that is known for its poignant songwriting, detailed arrangements, and vintage sound.

Featuring a three-piece horn section, the groups music harkens back to earlier soul and funk influences while hinting at the jazz foundations that brought the bands members together.

Love Direction, the follow-up to 2022s Sticking With It (which landed at #1 on the Billboard Current R&B Albums Chart) is the bands fourth full-length studio album.

Despite the title, this latest record isnt a collection of straightforward love songs, but an investigation into the different angles and challenges that relationships can bring. Expanding on the albums theme, Eddy notes These arent Love Songs in the most obvious sense. They deal with the middle stages, the hinterlands of love and life together – figuring someone out and what they need, learning how to communicate, and examining your own faults. We set out to write music that felt more grown, a little wiser. The songs that emerged all pointed in the Love Direction.
