Today, GRAMMY-nominated Black Pumas released The Electric Deluxe Sessions (Amazon Original), a new EP that features reimagined versions of their songs “Colors,” “Fire,” and “Know You Better,” along with a cover of the classic Jimmy Webb composition “Wichita Lineman” (originally made famous by Glen Campbell, The Meters, and others). The Electric Deluxe Sessions (Amazon Original) is available to stream and purchase only on Amazon Music. Today at 2PM PT, the band will be live on the Amazon Music Twitch channel to discuss the EP and play a few songs from it.
“We recorded ‘Colors,’ ‘Fire,’ and ‘Know You Better’ live for this Amazon session, and those are all tunes that from the time we recorded them for the album to what they’ve become live, have just become this whole other thing,” says the band’s guitarist and producer Adrian Quesada. “When we recorded the record [Black Pumas] we’d only been working together for a few months. All the touring we did over the last year, the live show has elevated all the songs arrangement-wise, everyone gets to shine a little bit and we don’t get to put that down too often.”
