5th album from trumpeter, singer, and bandleader Theo Croker, ‘Star People Nation’ is the eagerly awaited follow up to his acclaimed 2016 release ‘Escape Velocity’. The multi-paced ‘Subconscious Flirtations and Titilations’ skitters and jolts but never completely breaks down, the laid back ‘Have You Come To Say’ is a more spacious offering while the lush ‘Getaway Gold’ features the vocals of Rose Gold. The walking b-line and incisive piano lines of The Messenger combine to unify with Croker’s unfaltering brass while the broken beat funk of ‘Understand Yourself’ is yet another direction on this strong set. Fans of Snarky Puppy and Kamasi Washington will find a lot to enjoy here.
