NEW RELEASE
I See My Light
There are albums that entertain. There are albums that move you. And then there are albums that find you at exactly the right moment and remind you of something you had almost forgotten about yourself. "I See My Light" is that kind of album.
Internationally acclaimed soul and jazz artist Myles Sanko announces the release of his seventh studio album "I See My Light," arriving worldwide on 11 September 2026 via his own label, 213 Music. A deeply personal and profoundly moving collection of songs, the album serves as a powerful sequel to his 2024 release "Let It Unfold," continuing a journey of self-love, healing and artistic independence.
Following the bold creative statement of "Let It Unfold," which marked a pivotal moment in Sanko's career as he took full creative control over composing, producing and releasing the project through 213 Music, "I See My Light" represents the next chapter in that evolution. Where "Let It Unfold" explored self-acceptance and the courage to confront past wounds, "I See My Light" reflects the clarity, strength and inner illumination that emerge from that process. It is the moment of finally looking in the mirror and seeing something worth celebrating shining back at you.
Across ten beautifully crafted songs, "I See My Light" traces a single, deeply human thread: from hiding to being seen, from searching outside to finding within, from fighting to resting, from doubt to belief, from pieces to wholeness. Beginning with the tender self-examination of "Pieces of Myself" and moving through questions of love, courage and resilience, the album arrives at its extraordinary title track, a joyful, deeply felt affirmation of self-recognition where the searching finally stops and the truth becomes undeniable, before coming to rest in the quiet conviction of "On My Way." It is a journey that will feel deeply familiar to anyone who has ever fought to become the person they were always meant to be.
Rooted in Sanko's signature fusion of soul, jazz and hip-hop, and enriched by rhythmic influences from his Ghanaian heritage, "I See My Light" further refines his distinctive contemporary sound. With emotional depth and lyrical sincerity at its core, the album radiates confidence, resilience and hope. It is both a continuation and a transformation, a testament to growth not only as an artist but as a human being.
As with his previous album, “Let It Unfold”, Sanko remains fully independent, releasing the album through his own label 213 Music. An artist who wears his heart on his sleeve and opens himself fully to his listeners, Sanko has never been interested in simply recreating what has come before. He draws from the rich tradition of soul and jazz, adds his own flavour and pushes it forward, always carving a sound that is unmistakably his own.
At the core of Myles Sanko's enduring mission is a simple but powerful belief: selling hope. "I See My Light" is the fullest expression of that mission he has ever committed to record.
To celebrate the release, Myles Sanko will embark on the "I See My Light Tour," kicking off in Cambridge and concluding in Poland. Fully self-produced and independently presented, the tour is a natural extension of the same ethos that drives the music. Every ticket is a direct line between artist and audience, and every show is Myles bringing his story to you himself. He will be joined by his dynamic live band:
Tom O'Grady: Piano, Rhodes & Synthesiser
Ric Elsworth: Drums & Percussion
George Chasmore: Electric Guitar
Jon Mapp: Electric Bass
Gareth Lumbers: Tenor Saxophone & Flute
With "I See My Light," Myles Sanko invites listeners to move beyond unfolding, toward illumination.
"I See My Light" is released worldwide on 11 September 2026 via 213 Music.
