Lester Rey Reflects On His Beliefs And Searches For A Sanctuary On New EP

Lester Rey‘s journey from playing congas in his family’s Humboldt Park church to becoming a producer and vocalist all over the country is one that’s very Chicago, very Puerto Rico but most importantly very Lester Rey. His new EP is called “Santuario,” and it’s just in time to usher us into spring and summer on a tide of dreamy beats and introspective lyrics. The EP is a deeply personal project that finds the “Latin Soul” singer and songwriter in search of a sanctuary as he addresses pain and trauma of the past and re-examines his previously held beliefs. Lester spoke with Jill Hopkins about the project and its themes. Listen to our conversation below:
