He is following in the roch tradition of classic songwriters such as Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Neil Young, while touching on the soulful Michael Kiwanuka. Londoner L.A. Salami produces an energetic tumble of ideas and influences, mixing beat poetry, chain-gang blues, hip-hop and pithy one-liners. His debut album, Dancing With Bad Grammar, came out in August 2016 on Sunday Best/ [PIAS]/ Domino.
