When Black Pumas made their self-titled debut in 2019, the Austin-bred duo set off a reaction almost as combustible and rapturous as their music itself. Along with earning a career total of seven Grammy Award nominations (including Album Of The Year) and winning praise from leading outlets like Pitchfork and Rolling Stone, singer / songwriter Eric Burton and guitarist / producer Adrian Quesada achieved massive success as a live act, touring large theatres all over Europe and North and South America, delivering a transcendent show Burton aptly refers to as “electric church.”
As they set to work on their highly awaited sophomore album, the band broadened their palette to include a dazzling expanse of musical forms: heavenly hybrids of soul and symphonic pop, mind-bending excursions into jazz-funk and psychedelia, starry-eyed love songs that feel dropped down from the cosmos.
Wilder and weirder and more extravagantly composed than its predecessor, ‘Chronicles of a Diamond’ arrives as the fullest expression yet of Black Pumas’ frenetic creativity and limitless vision.
