Burbank, CA (Top40 Charts/ KEROSENE MEDIA) Los Angeles based soul & funk revivalists Orgone are set to release their new album "New You", which will be released digitally through the group's own label on July 16th, 2013. To support "New You", the group will embark on a cross-country tour throughout the summer.
"The rapidly-changing landscape of the music industry is becoming more like the Wild West and it's primed for independent artists to stake their claim and make an impact on a wide scale. The time is perfect for Orgone to throw its hat in the ring," said
Sergio Rios "Our homegrown recording studio Killion Sound has always been a living, breathing organism so it feels inevitable for it to evolve into a label and represent Orgone and the full scope of our vision."
"Our new album 'New You' encompasses the best of what Orgone has always been, but with a spirit of reinvention. It's the best thing we've ever done from production, recording, and creative standpoints—our best hooks, songwriting, and our hardest-hitting instrumentals," added keyboardist Dan Hastie. "The top-notch quality of our end result came from folding in guest lyricists and amazing vocalists and it reflects so much of the collaborative energy that is Orgone. It's our best party yet and we're extremely proud and excited that it's the first shot out of the Killion Sound cannon."
Los Angeles band Orgone has been creating heavy, raw, adrenaline-fueled funk and sweat-dripping soul since the release of their 2007 self-titled debut. For nearly a decade Orgone has been challenging people's expectations and progressively pushing funk into the new millennium. Touring almost non-stop has allowed Orgone to evolve into an incendiary live act that has performed with eclectic acts like the Roots, Al Green, Gil Scott-Heron, Rebelution, Galactic, Ozomatli, Snoop Dogg, Thievery Corporation, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Groundation,
Aaron Neville, and at Bonnaroo
Music Festival. Armed with a new album and a take-no-prisoners live show, Orgone are ready to evolve and redefine funk again in 2013.
