BLACK SPIRITUALS

Black Spirituals (the duo made up of Zachary Watkins and Marshall Trammell) have released their debut LP on Sige. Equal parts free jazz and noise, ‘Of Deconstructions’ is a tense, yet satisfying sonic trip. Trammell’s percussive work gets downright hypnotic and Watkins sounds as though he is wrestling electricity itself. Not to be missed, and ultra limited: the LP is available and limited to 250 hand-stamped copies in custom jackets with artwork by Faith Coloccia of Mamiffer fame.

"Whenever I see Black Spirituals play I see a magical collaboration bringing together concepts of history and radical transformation. I see elements of rebellion and elements of simplicity and fun. There are elements of cumbia, noise, jazz, and avant improvisation." - Sharmi Basu


"Two of the brightest musical minds of today - Marshall Trammell and Zachary James Watkins bring their skills and
passion to Black Spirituals. Get this recording right away!" - Pauline Oliveros
