  Songbook - The Lyrics and Music...

  From the award-winning, multi-genre author and musician Steven Heighton, Songbook brings together Heighton’s lyrics and music for the first time in a single volume, including his final songs, which have never been heard or seen until now. When Steven Heighton died suddenly of cancer in 2022, he was in the middle of an intensely creative period of songwriting. He released his first album of original material, The Devil’s Share, in 2021 and was preparing to record his second album. Known first as a poet, Heighton had always held that “music and poetry are two words for the same thing.”
  		 
  As in his songwriting, in Songbook, Heighton moves fluidly between genres and subjects, from political songs like “The Butcher’s Bill,” about the carelessness of nations sending their youth to war, to reimagining the myth of Orpheus (“I'll hold my breath the whole way down / And find your soul in the undertown”), to blues tunes like “Last Living Woman Alive,” and a tribute to the late John Prine, the “Buddha of Song.” With chords accompanying the lyrics, readers and musicians have the ability to bring the songs to life with their own interpretations. The music in Songbook was the final work of Heighton’s life, and it is not only a gift to have his lyrics and chords but an invitation from Heighton himself, challenging his readers to answer the call and keep singing along.

  The Luba Empire emerged as one of the most influential kingdoms in Central Africa during the pre-colonial period. Rooted in a rich tradition of oral history and cultural heritage, the empire played a central role in shaping trade, political organization, and social structures throughout the region. The Luba people developed a sophisticated society that not only thrived on local commerce but also participated in expansive regional networks, connecting diverse communities across the African continent. 
  The formation of the Luba Empire was marked by a blend of indigenous traditions and innovative political practices. At its core was a system of governance that efficiently harnessed local resources, maintained internal stability, and forged strategic alliances with neighboring groups. This centralized authority, balanced by localized autonomy, enabled the empire to mediate conflicts and expand its influence through both diplomatic and military means. The administrative techniques developed during this era laid the groundwork for a resilient state capable of adapting to shifting economic and social dynamics. 
  Economically, the Luba Empire became a beacon of trade and craftsmanship. Its strategic location allowed it to serve as a vital crossroads for commerce, facilitating the exchange of valuable goods such as salt, iron, and agricultural products. The empire’s success in trade was not only a product of its abundant natural resources but also of the innovative methods its people employed in agriculture, metallurgy, and artisanal production. These economic activities formed the backbone of a prosperous society that celebrated both practical skills and cultural achievements, fostering an environment of continuous growth and learning.
