A new track, introduced by Purnell himself.
Brontez Purnell has been making music since the ‘90s. He started in The Social Lies, a hardcore Afro-punk duo in Alabama in his teens, and later Gravy Train!!!. He then went on to lead his long running project The Younger Lovers and now unveils the Brontez Purnell Trio. Based out of Oakland, CA, Purnell is also a writer, dancer, filmmaker, and choreographer (The Brontez Purnell Dance Company). He is the author of eight critically lauded books, including this year’s Ten Bridges I’ve Burnt: A Memoir in Verse, Since I Laid My Burden Down, 100 Boyfriends, and more that
have placed him among the most important writers of his generation.
