Brooklyn’s sister psych duo Prince Rama is on tour in support of their new extreme sports-themed album Xtreme Now and will be in Minneapolis playing 7th Street Entry on Thursday, April 7. Tickets are still available HERE
Prince Rama, the duo of sisters Taraka and Nimai Larson, describe Xtreme Now as the most extreme album they’ve ever made. It was inspired by a near-death experience Taraka underwent at an ancient Viking ruin on the Estonian island of Vȫrmsi. The songs of Xtreme Now reflect the girls’ visions of danger, mortality, and time travel. Despite those heady themes, it’s also Prince Rama’s most accessible album. Songs like “Bahia” and “Now Is The Time Of Emotion” have big, joyous hooks and eminently danceable melodies.
