PSYCHEDELIC BRIT ROCKERS KULA SHAKER TO RELEASE NEW STUDIO ALBUM NATURAL MAGICK
DUE OUT DIGITALLY WORLDWIDE FEBRUARY 2 | CD/VINYL OUT MARCH 1 IN NORTH AMERICA
Psychedelic Brit rockers Kula Shaker are set to release a spellbinding new studio album: Natural Magick is due out digitally worldwide on February 2nd via Strange Folk Records, with CD and vinyl available in North America on March 1st, distributed by BFD/The Orchard. The band’s seventh studio album finds all four original band members reunited, for the first time in twenty-five years, with the return of keyboard wizard Jay Darlington after a decade with Oasis and various Gallagher brothers. The result is a positively energized, euphoric ride on full display in the technicolor, trippy new video for the title track, “Natural Magick;”
Natural Magick is produced by Kula Shaker frontman/guitarist Crispian Mills, co-writer and bassist Alonza Bevan and Kevin Nixon.
On the making of the new album, Kula Shaker’s Crispian Mills avowed, “It was actually very similar to the way we recorded [debut album] K, back when we only had half an hour to blow people away. We wrote and tested all the songs on the road so they’re all quite tough and tight in arrangement. If you can take an audience on a fantastical ride in a few short minutes, there’s a thrill and excitement in that.”
Named after a 10th century South Indian King, Kula Shaker first carried their royal flag of retro freakery and spiritual sonics to the toppermost of the poppermost during the heady days of Britpop, with their multi-platinum debut album, K. Combining the psychedelic, guitar-driven sounds of the ‘60s with mysticism and spirituality a la George Harrison, Kula Shaker established themselves as a premier rock band, with a not-to-be-missed live show. Selling millions of records, Kula Shaker has enjoyed success not only in their native Britain but also worldwide, earning critical media coverage and wowing fans globally. Kula Shaker is Crispian Mills (guitar, vocals), Alonza Bevan (bass, vocals), Paul Winter-Hart (drums) and Jay Darlington (Hammond organ, keys).
