Kamasi Washington's Brilliant Debut 'The Epic' Is Getting A 3-LP Vinyl Release

Get ready to hear the exceptional Kamasi Washington's stunning debut from between the dust and grooves. That's right, BRAINFEEDER's jazzy genius (and bandleader behind Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly) has a massive new release on the way, fitting his expansive and frankly brilliant debut The Epic to a three-LP vinyl pressing, which is the perfect cap on a dream that began some 4 years ago and continues to this day as Washington takes his seat at the top of cerebral and cinematic jazz throne. The vinyl release is slated for an October 2nd release and can preorder by hitting the link below. You can also catch him on the road with a massive ensemble throughout this month and next; a stunning a live show that you can dip your eyes and ears into by jumping back to the release of the gorgeous clip for his album standout "The Rhythm Changes."
