Official second single off Lisa Banton’s latest EP, Lost & Found. Here’s all the info:

Toronto, Canada – R&B singer/songwriter releases her second single “When You” from her very well received EP Lost And Found.

The song was written by Lisa Banton and produced by Mal T from Atlanta, GA.
“When You” is a slow and sexy song expressing the want and need of that special person’s touch. This track may show a different side of her lyrically but definitely has her trademark harmonies and soulful sound infused in the song.

With the release of her EP last year, her success of the first single Let You Go
and award win for ‘BEST R&B ACT’ at the Black Canadian Awards, 2015 was a
stellar year and the momentum continues.

This will be the first lyric video for the R&B songstress which will be followed up by some more visuals for this single and others from the EP.
Lost And Found is available on itunes, Bandcamp and wherever digital music is sold.

Lisa Banton is continuing to make her presence known this year. 2016 will be
bigger and better.

Download “When You”: MP3
Or reply to email for song to be sent via email and/or to be sent a link for DJ Pack.
