Satisfy Saturn

By: Laurie Gallardo

The futuristic afro-electronic/hip-hop/neo soul voyage of Satisfy Saturn by Trouble In the Streets is also a celebratory ode to the wisdom of ancestors; a determination to hold space for hope as darkness seeps through; or, perhaps just going for it, even if it all seems pointless. Songwriter/vocalist Nnedi Agbaroji serves as your cosmic guide through the tumult and discovery. “Denying you are hungry no longer / Child from the stars / it’s time to hold your own hand,” Agbaroji cantillates on “Fantastic Vastness,” “You are walking into the darkest rainbow / Reach towards the precipice of your mind past your longest shadow…”

Trouble In the Streets requests that you pull together your sharpest and most celestial ensembles for their interstellar release show and Intergalactic Prom, happening tonight, Thursday April 27, at The Parish, 501 Brushy St. Doors at 7:30 p.m., and ultra-glam femme boy fatale Caleb De Casper opens the show. One not to miss, earthlings. Dance along those shimmering Saturn rings…
