The S.L.P. is a solo vehicle for Kasabian guitarist and chief songwriter Sergio Lorenzo Pizzorno -- the name stems from Pizzorno's initials. Conceived while Kasabian went on a one-year hiatus following the release their 2017 LP For Crying Out Loud, the project sees Pizzorno pairing the indie rock attack of his flagship band with elements of electronic pop and hip-hop. In early 2019, he released the single "Favourites," which featured a guest spot from London-born rapper Little Simz. Three more singles followed, including a collaboration with Northamptonshire rapper slowthai, and later that August he released his eponymous debut full-length outing under the moniker. ~ James Christopher Monger
