Star People Nation is Theo Croker’s most personal project yet, something Croker describes as an intimate exploration of “the everyday rituals of blackness.” A translation of his personal, spiritual and creative experience, the album is a self-reflective collection of powerfully passionate and boundary-busting compositions that speak to our greater, shared human existence. Featuring jazz pianist Elew, “The Messenger” pairs a smoky blues piano with a traditional swing rhythm, locking into the pocket and showcasing Croker’s mastery of the swing. Available as a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on crystal clear vinyl. The Star People Nation package includes a 4-page booklet.
