MAGULO - MAGULO (140G/WHITE VINYL)

After eighteen years holding down a legendary residency at LA's Seven Grand, Magulo is finally ready to give the world what the room already knew. The five-piece-guitarist Christian Wunderlich, trumpeter and keys player Gabe Steiner, bassist JP Maramba, drummer Vince Fossett, and saxophonist and bandleader Aaron Leibowitz (aka Ronny Sax)-is a collective of heavy hitters who've toured with some of the biggest names in music but have always called Magulo home base. Their sound is a live-wire melding of Afrobeat, Ethio jazz, surf rock, Motown, and whatever else the moment demands-rooted in improvisation, built on trust, and tight as hell despite a name that translates from Tagalog to "disheveled, messy." Their debut album Desert Drip, due Summer 2026 on Mixto Records, was captured in a single session in a Hollywood Hills living room steeped in musical history. Eleven tracks deep-from a reimagined Mulatu Astatke classic to Henry Mancini's "Lujon" to deep Funkadelic cuts-Desert Drip is the definitive document of a band that's been quietly building something extraordinary for nearly two decades.
