Austin's Black Pumas ready debut album for June release

Grupo Fantasma's Adrian Quesada and Eric Burton are Black Pumas. Listen to "Colors" off their self-titled debut due June 21. 

Here's the scoop...
Black Pumas were the first artist to release music on Colemine Records' new sub-label Karma Chief Records last year. In partnership with ATO Records, Karma Chief is releasing the Black Pumas self-titled debut LP on June 21st.

The band is led by the creative partnership between Grammy-winning guitarist/producer Adrian Quesada and 27-year-old songwriter Eric Burton. Burton is a relative newcomer who arrived in Austin in 2015 after busking his way across the country from Los Angeles, while Quesada has a storied reputation for playing in bands like Grupo Fantasma and Brownout.

Listen to "Colors" and a full performance from last year (below) and then pre-order a limited edition red/black coloured wax version of Black Pumas' debut album right here while supplies last.

One For The Weekend: Adrian Quesada

The track below is from a special collaborative EP involving Adrian Younge (Venice Dawn, Black Dynamite), Adrian Quesada (Echocentrics, Ocote Soul Sounds, Brownout, Grupo Fantasma) along with soulful vocalist Sonia Moore who lights up the song Last Word. Ubiquity released the four-track 12" in a limited edition of 1000 copies on coloured vinyl for Record Store Day. Like many small-run RSD items the Adrian Vs. Adrian EP has since vanished although some stores may still have a copy hiding in the back of a bin.
