Premiering today off their upcoming album One,  Austin-based atmospheric hip hop group Hara share their lead single "Branches". The group is the collaborative effort between rappers Tåsi and Falling Awake Sound Therapy and producer Left Ear. By lyrically weaving together personal reflections with natural elements, the track organically mirrors each artist's distinct positionality and establishes a harmonious balance between contemplation and conviction. Listen to the premiere, accompanied with a poem by Tåsi, below:


​I wanna know a long ago
And far away and long awaited
The branches spoke under the sun
Amidst the day I look for one...


This song (and album) was produced, written, and arranged in late 2016/17 by three branches of the same tree. It is the summation of a cohesive, collective experience of each other’s contexts and possibilities. In many ways, it needed many years to poke through the canopy--to see the light of day:
        A Branch can be many things
        Branch as reaching
        Branch as connection
        Branch as community
        Branch as roots
        Branch as land
        Branch as family
        Branch as generations
        Branch as time
        Branch as growth
        Branch as shape
        Branch as map
        Branch as strength
        Branch as hold on
        Branch as hold on
        Hold on Hold on
-Hara
​


The full album will be available on cassette December 11th on (iN)Sect Records.
