Allen Stone's Building Balance is his first album in four years, spanning a time period spent figuring out how the old parts and the new parts of his universe were going to co-exist. For Building Balance he worked with Grammy-winning producer Nasri as well as Jamie Lidell. Stone continues to draw inspiration from '70s funk and soul with current flexes, sitting amid D'Angelo in it's sultrier moments, Stevie Wonder at it's most melodic and the production of Mark Ronson at it's most modern.
