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
