Nadir – The Book of Jonah (enhanced cd + digital)

For his third full-length album, The Book of Jonah, Detroit’s soul scribe Nadir has penned a bold anthology of prose, parable, prophecy and fable, expertly fusing 21st Century blues, modern rock, progressive soul and new Detroit funk – often in the same song.

Metro Times Detroit says The Book of Jonah is “fantastic… a dirty, honest little funk ’n’ roll record recalling George Clinton, early Stevie Wonder and the MC5 in a big sonic soup.”

SoulTracks.com calls The Book of Jonah, “…one the top albums of 2012. Highly Recommended.”

Detroit Free Press agrees: “Nadir reveals a fantastic collection of songs with a positive message about everyday life.”

BlackGrooves.org says The Book of Jonah is a “funk workout”.
