One of the biggest breakout stars of SXSW earlier this month, Leon Bridges, will release his debut album this June.
Titled Coming Home, the set will arrive on June 23 via Columbia Records. It will feature his three previously released songs, title track “Coming Home,” “Lisa Sawyer” and "Better Man," the latter of which he performed last week on The Late Late Show with James Corden.
The news also comes ahead of the soul singer's largely sold out tour, which begins next month in Chicago.
