Burbank, CA - November 4, 2014:  Theophilus London returns after a two-year hiatus today with his new album Vibes.  To celebrate the release, Theophilus debuts his new video for"Tribe" via the New York Times' T Magazine which will be performed live for the first time this Friday on the Late Show with David Letterman.

​Executive produced by Kanye West and adorned with cover art by Karl Lagerfeld, Vibes is a collage of "experimental pop, gallant R&B and '80s new wave inflection[,] most striking in its mix of top-of-the-charts pop intuition, leftfield sensibility, and artful, giddy experimentation" (The FADER).   The title of the album is a reflection of the driftless spirit of collaboration that permeates the record. "The album is called Vibes because everything that happened creatively and spiritually just all vibed together," explains London. "Everyone who worked on it with me did it on a family level. We all vibed together. You couldn't even plan it. It was all vibes."

Yesterday, the New York native stopped by HOT 97 to detail his work with Kanye West, his penchant for big hats, upcoming projects and more with Ebro and Peter Rosenberg.  Check out the interview at http://youtu.be/YKFnwyiDyl0.

The 12-song LP took nearly two-years to create following Theophilus' relocation to the deserts of Palm Springs to join his inspiration and Motown-legend Leon Ware to serve as creative producer on the album.  London had long admired the work of Ware -- who has worked with the likes of The Isley Brothers, Ike and Tina, Diana Ross, Quincy Jones, Minnie Riperton and Maxwell, as well as great moments in soul music such as Marvin Gaye's classic I Want You and Michael Jackson's first gold record "I Wanna Be Where You Are" -- and had even reimagined the album cover of Ware's eponymous 1982 album for his major label debut album, 2011's Timez Are Weird These Days.

Tracklisting for Vibes is as follows:

1. Water Me (feat. Leon Ware)
2. Neu Law
3. Take And Look
4. Can't Stop My Love (feat. Kanye West)
5. Get Me Right
