For this performance, Blacc enlisted a chamber orchestra, led by Geoff "Double G" Gallegos (LA Philharmonic, DJ Quik) and an African dance troupe. The music video was directed by Kyle Salazar and shot in one uninterrupted take.
Aloe Blacc will release his major-label debut album Lift Your Spirit March 11th on XIX Recordings/Interscope Records. The set follows up Blacc's collaboration as vocalist and co-writer on well-known DJ/producer Avicii's track "Wake Me Up," a song that hit the Top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on its Hot Dance Club Songs and Dance/Electronic Songs charts, as well as topping charts in more than 100 countries. Blacc's five-track Wake Me Up EP came out last September and included an acoustic version of the title track. Blacc's current single, "The Man," which is featured in the new Beats by Dre national TV campaign, is quickly climbing to the top of the charts with more than 1 million singles sold. Blacc is featured in the line-up for this April's Coachella festival and will be touring the U.S. this summer with Bruno Mars.
