Earth, Wind & Fire - "Sign On"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Earth, Wind & Fire return with "Sign On" - the latest single to arrive from their forthcoming LP Now, Then & Forever, dropping September 10th. The Elements find themselves taking it back to the dancefloor for their 21st studio LP with the requisite bass, horns and high notes that gave them wings over four decades ago. "Sign On" - written by Philip Doron Bailey, son of EWF's famed falsetto master Philip Bailey - helps to set things in motion with a vintage groove and jubilant chorus that gets a bigger spotlight at the close of the track with a bit of a capella vocal; the group's perennially tight harmonies take center stage in perfectly synchronous performance. Now, Then & Forever is the first LP the group has recorded without any production assistance from Maurice White, though the EWF founder and former frontman gave his blessing for the project. Check Earth, Wind & Fire's latest single "Sign On" below. Scroll down to watch the legendary group breakdown their next release.
