Tickets for both shows here: https://tinyurl.com/3usf3w2w\n\nWith Hourglass, Antibalas returns to its instrumental roots. Previous albums featured lyrics that addressed topics like patriarchy, climate change, militarism, late stage capitalism, oligarchy, white ethnonationalism, and the genocide of Native Americans.\n\nWith this album, the group rearticulates these themes, speaking through melody and rhythm. \n\n“Once a song has lyrics, everyone who doesnʼt speak that language is on the outside. We use rhythm and melody to translate the emotions in the album and make it universally accessible,” explains the co-producer/founder Martín Perna. https://tinyurl.com/ssj7f4j3", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
