Absolute desert rock icon BRANT BJORK (former Kyuss and Fu Manchu) is unveiling his thirteenth solo album in its entirety courtesy of Revolver Magazine. Reviving the true spirit of rock with an unprecedented sense of groove –the one and only Brant Bjork Groove – new album "Mankind Woman" is landing September 14th on Heavy Psych Sounds Records.
"Mankind Woman" is BRANT BJORK's first ever release on European independent powerhouse Heavy Psych Sounds Records. This 11-track gem – already described as his catchiest to date – presents the multi-instrumentalist and vocalist's take on 60s and 70s music era. Joined by long-time friend and Low Desert Punk musician Bubba Dupree, Brant Bjork blends the finest of his classic rock, rhythm'n'blues and funk influences to craft a groovy, hook-laden record that adds to a prolific and always heat-warming collection of records from the legendary desert rocker. Revolver Magazine states: "Mankind Woman showcases the talents of two lifelong passionate music lovers looking forward rather than mining their respective past successes."
