Golden Dawn Arkestra announce debut album Stargazer
We can’t wait for some of the albums slated for release next year. One that we’re really excited about will come from the hands of Texas based Golden Dawn Arkestra, a collective of musicians, dancers and visual artists founded in 2013 by saxophonist Topaz McGarrigle aka Zapot Mgwana. Influenced by Sun Ra as the name suggests, their music is a cosmic blend of musical ideas, fun inventiveness and many genres, from Afrobeat and Funk to Jazz and Rock.
Following last year’s eponymous EP, Golden Dawn Arkestra are set to release their debut full-length, Stargazer, on February 26th via Modern Imperial. The monumental and hip-shakin’ title track, offered as the first single, serves as an incredibly enticing introduction to the upcoming Stargazer. Listen to it below.
