Nick Hakim Announces 'Where Will We Go' Vinyl Release w/ A Double-Shot Of Acoustic Soul

Nick Hakim has been stirring souls with his reverbed r&b stylings ever since he showed up on our First Look radar all those months ago, but today we're getting a couple of stripped-down treats from the Brooklyn-based crooner. Hakim dropped two (kind of) new joints in the bare-skinned jones of "Cold" and the unreleased piano-touched (until now) "The Want," whose hook instantly recalls the lustful yearning of Marvin Gaye's "I Want You."

What's more, the two-part Where Will We Go EP that housed those silky joints will soon be released in a full vinyl treatment on his very own Earseed Records imprint. You can put Nick Hakim's acoustic ballads in your ears by hitting the players below, but the UK will soon be able to have him in their sights, as he'll be joining How To Dress Well on tour through the end of October. NYC fam can catch him when he makes his return in January. Where Will We Go Pts. 1 & 2 will be available on wax November 18th, so stay tuned for links and preorder info.
