Oteil Burbridge - Water in the Desert (2017)

Water in the Desert is Oteil Burbridge’s first solo record in over a decade. Produced by David Ryan Harris, every track on the record was written by Oteil and features an all-star cast of some of Oteil’s favorite musicians including: his brother Kofi Burbridge on keys, Dave Yoke on guitar, Miguel Atwood Ferguson on strings, Lil’ John Roberts and Sean O’Rourke on drums and outstanding vocalists Alfreda Gerald and Mark Rivers.

“The tracks on Water in the Desert are all songs about love in some way" says Burbridge. "Finding out how to love yourself, hoping that another loved one will love you just as you are, believing in someone when they find it hard to believe in themselves, love gone wrong, or finally finding the “perfect fit.” I feel like every problem we have on earth in some way comes back to the lack of love. That’s really what this record is about.”
