She recruited GRAMMY Award-winning producer, bassist and songwriter Larry Klein. The record features rich contributions from longtime collaborators Reagon and Harris, and new partnerships with David Batteau, J.D. Souther, and Maia Sharp, yielding captivating originals such as “Lean In,” “Real Life Painting” and “Right Where You Are,” featuring Gregory Porter. Equally admired as an interpreter of songs, Wright also turns her eyes towards Nick Drake’s “River Man,” the Bee Gees’ “To Love Somebody” and bonus track Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger’s “The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face.”
The impressionable journey of making records and touring to support them ensures that no artist is the same for their fifth record as they were for their first. Wright’s soaring arc of growth and expanding expression has been the public weaving of an intricate and colorful tapestry. For her fifth project, supported by the brilliance, wisdom, and friendship of Klein, Wright’s own fulfillment and enjoyment from the process are evident. She is gifted with an extraordinary instrument, and Freedom & Surrender allows Wright to illuminate her dynamic soul through the layers of passion and playfulness found within the songs.

Lizz Wright Lyrics
blessed the brave Counting days, my loving arms Always open when you come Hear…
FREEDOM Freedom, will she call my name Oh, I wonder if she′ll…
Here And Now Don′t leave me behind You got inside me A place a space…
River Man Betty came by on her way Said she had a word…
Somewhere Down The Mystic My soul went walking Up a mountain trail My good friend was…
Surrender Baby what′s the matter? Come and stay with me a while Don't…
The Game The night was ready and so was I To lay you…
You If the sun refused to shine, I will still be…
