The funkadelic vibes are still alive and thriving! After a high bar set at SXSW while opening up for Bootsy Collins, the Texas collective GRANDMASTER is back with their latest release entitled Holy Star. With an ethereal sonic signature reminiscent of Earth, Wind & Fire and the Bee Gees, the interstellar ballad offers listeners a feeling of weightlessness as the band reaches new creative heights with instrumentation and vocal prowess. Nick Leon of GRANDMASTER had to say:
'Holy Star’ reaches heights that this ensemble has never reached before, and the groove offers an interstellar weightlessness that cannot be found anywhere else. The "Holy Star" is an energy star, and The Grandmaster takes energy from it.
GRANDMASTER continues to combine lush harmonies with analog synths, blended with vaporous guitar, disco beats, and alternately sky-scraping and soulful vocals in their new music. Within less than a year, GRANDMASTER have already converted sold out audiences into acolytes at an alarming rate, generating hundreds of thousands of streams in the process to boot.
