South African progressive instrumentalists Savage Lucy release their long-awaited new single and video today. Arranging dynamic movements of melodic phrasing over eccentric rhythms, shadowed by darkly textured breakdowns, the trio intends to create emotional and erotic soundscapes, captured perfectly on the expansive new single Vagabond.
“Savage Lucy hasn’t released new material in a long time. Vagabond is the first new addition since 2015. Vagabond was named almost as a link to feeling lost. I think many of us often feel as we are meaninglessly just moving from place to place. The music video is our way of expressing that.” Comments guitarist Austen Ramsay Lewis.
