Small Changes is released on 15^th November through Polydor Records. A third preview of the record is shared today in new track, “The Rest Of Me” – streaming now, and with a beautifully shot video by Yout – watch.

Driving conversations between producer Brian Burton (Danger Mouse) and Michael about the direction of the album and particularly The Rest Of Me, the album’s penultimate track, was the desire to make an album that transcends any notion of what is or isn’t deemed “cool”. He recalls, “We were trying to shoot for something that might have made it onto a Bill Withers album or a Sadé album.” Indeed, Sadé is the case in point on this new track, as Michael remembers afternoons as a child in the back of his aunt’s car, “where Diamond Life was rarely out of the tape machine.”
