Legendary soul singer Lee Fields has shared his timeless new single, “Forever,” available now via Daptone Records at all DSPs and streaming services. A stripped-down live performance video – featuring backing from guitarist Thomas Brenneck (Charles Bradley, Menahan Street Band) and vocalist Josh Lane (Thee Sacred Souls) – premieres today on YouTube.
“Forever” marks the latest single from Fields’ first new album in three years and full-length Daptone Records debut, Sentimental Fool, arriving everywhere on Friday, October 28. Pre-orders are available now.

Produced by Daptone Records founder Bosco Mann – a.k.a. producer/musician Gabriel Roth – at his Penrose Recorders/Daptone West studio in Riverside, CA, the album also includes the recent released singles, “Ordinary Lives“ and “Sentimental Fool,” the latter joined by an official music video directed by Andrew Anderson and streaming now at YouTube.
“Sentimental Fool” was greeted by instant acclaim from media outlets around the world upon its premiere earlier this summer, with CLASH praising the new album’s title track for “a scorching, gospel-infused vocal that leans on Fields’ decades-worth of experience in order to reveal his innermost emotions exposed.”
