about

Just in time for the upcoming tour in March, Hamburg's finest soul collective Angels of Libra present a new single and a new collaboration with singer Sarife Afonso, who will also be fronting the band live with Nathan Johnston. The Hamburg native with half-Spanish roots has already made a name for herself in the local music scene as a soul and R&B singer with her expressive, versatile voice and, in combination with the analogue vintage sound of Angels of Libra, has succeeded with „Baby When You Hold Me“ in creating an authentic retro soul power number in the style of the early records by Aretha Franklin or Sharon Jones.

Tour Dates:

02.03.24 Amsterdam, Bitterzoet
10.03.24 Hamburg, Knust
14.03.24 Wölpinghausen, Kleine Freiheit
15.03.24 Berlin, Privatclub
16.03.24 Köln, Sonic Ballroom
26.04.24 Mullingar, The Stables
28.04.24 Dublin, The Soundhouse

lyrics

Baby when you hold me
Oh Baby when you hold me
I know that it's the only
The only thing that I need

Sometimes I feel kind of blue
My life seems gray and out of tune
The world keeps spinning but I feel so confused
There are people running running running
Running down these streets
So much to much to much to do no time to keep
And I feel like I could loose control

Baby When you hold me
Baby when you hold me
I know that it's the only
The only thing that I need

Baby When you hold me
Baby when you hold me
I know that it's the only
The only thing that I need

Oooh when Isee your silly face
Oooh how I long for your embrace
There's nowhere in this world l'd rather be
Cause you're what I want you're everything to me

Hold
Hold me
Hold
Me

The only thing that I need
Baby when you hold me
Oh Baby when you hold me
I know that it's the only
The only thing that I need

Baby when you hold me
hold me hold me hold me
Feel me feel me feel me feel me
Touch me Touch me Touch me
Yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Hold me
Hold me, babe
Yeah yeah hold me
