Released on June 1st, 2017, Joe Lington’s album “Trust” is a poignant exploration of the cultural and perceptual disparities that shape our world. Drawing from his own experiences growing up, Lington delves into the intriguing contrasts between the Western and Third World, particularly within the realms of the French, English, and African cultures. “Trust” prompts a fundamental question: Can we truly rely on the opinions and emotions of human beings?

These differences can either strengthen or hinder our connections with others, leading to profound reflections on the nature of trust.

Standout tracks like “I Gotta Be with You” and “Elle” showcase Lington’s ability to infuse emotion into his music, creating a powerful resonance with his audience.
