Charlie Griffiths release new music video for ‘Luminous Beings’

CHARLIE GRIFFITHS has released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Luminous Beings, is taken from the HAKEN guitarist’s upcoming debut solo album, Tiktaalika, which is scheduled to be released later this month. The new song features a guest appearance from Danïel De Jongh, formerly of TEXTURES.

Speaking about the new song, Charlie says, “the most proggy track on the album; I think of it as GENTLE GIANTS meets CYNIC, with a blend of big odd time riffs and technical, detailed guitar parts and jazz harmony. Lyrically this is a love letter to the amazing planet and natural world we find ourselves in and also reflects on that intangible ‘force’ which drives us and inspires us to keep moving forward, despite the many obstacles we’re all dealt. But as someone once said, ‘life finds a way!’. I’d long been a fan of Danïel De Jongh’s vocal work with TEXTURES and I was incredibly lucky to have him lend his awesome, soulful voice to this track and bringing it to life. Underpinning it all is drummer Darby Todd [MARTIN BARRE, DEVIN TOWNSEND], who delivered the perfect blend of power, world class groove and fusion chops to the track.”
