Brownout - You Don't Have To Fall / Super Bright - 7-INCH SINGLE [7 inch Vinyl Disc]

Limited red colored seven inch vinyl pressing. An eight-piece outfit formed ten years ago by members of Grammy Award-winning Latin revival orchestra Grupo Fantasma, Brownout has evolved into a musical force all it's own. After garnering their third Austin Music Award last year, the band has continued to produce music that is unflinchingly progressive, while evoking the classic influences of artists such as War, Cymande and Funkadelic. They've performed at events including Bonnaroo, High Sierra Music Festival, Pickathon, FFFFest, Bear Creek Music Festival, Utopia Festival and Pachanga Fest, while regularly touring the U.S. Brownout's also served as a highly in-demand backing band for artists including Prince, Daniel Johnston, GZA and Bernie Worrell. This 45 features two cuts from their latest , Over The Covers.

John Blow An Ode on the Death of Mr Henry Purcell & other works - An album of music for the connoisseur-of extraordinary singing as much as of the English Baroque. This wonderful recital ranges widely across Blow's vocal and instrumental music, Arcangelo again demonstrating their versatility in repertoire which will be a real discovery for many. Arcangelo, Jonathan Cohen

Brownout's legendary status as a InchFunk PowerhouseInch (Stereogum) is a reputation well deserved. The band of musicians have an impressive resume performing with Prince (RIP), GZA of the Wu-Tang Clan, Bernie Worrell (RIP), and accolades from Ozzy Osbourne for their Brownout Presents Brown Sabbath project. The latter helped grab the attention of Fat Beats Records, who worked with the band to the critically acclaimed Public Enemy instrumentals project Fear of A Brown Planet in 2018. The Austin 9-piece is back with their first full length album of original music in over 8 years. The album, aptly titled, Berlin Sessions (out March 6, 2020 on Fat Beats) was produced by Steve Berlin of Los Lobos and is the first with lead singer Alex Marrero, whom they originally collaborated with on their wildly successful Brown Sabbath records. Berlin Sessions finds the group merging a multitude of styles, from rock to psych and of course the Latin Funk and Breakbeat on which they have built their sixteen-year career and reputation as Austin's premier party-starters. NPR recently featured the band on their heralded InchTiny Desk ConcertInch series, performing songs off the new album. NPR described the diversity of the band, stating, InchOne of the things you need to know about this band is that they can change traditions or genres almost on a dime. The core members dip into soul, Latin funk, a form of Peruvian cumbia called chicha, and funk covers of both Black Sabbath and Public Enemy. What each configuration has in common is the almost telepathic bond the band has developed after 15 years of working stages across the country. As you can see on the video, it's so infectious that Prince once used them for a while as a back-up band.Inch
