Marshall Allen directs the Arkestra's first studio album in over twenty years, ‘Swirling'! This new recording represents the "continuation of a heartfelt rebirth of the Arkestra under Allen’s guidance since Sun Ra left the planet in 1993"; a big band line-up featuring long-standing Arkestra members including Danny Ray Thompson, Michael Ray, Vincent Chancey, Knoel Scott, Cecil Brooks, Atakatune, Elson Nascimento and Tyler Mitchell, the album is a full-blooded, cosmic celebration of Sun Ra’s legacy.
