Brighter Star is the third single from Energy Exchange Ensemble, a project born out of collaboration between Ziggy Zeitgeist and Lewis Moody from musical powerhouses Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange and 30/70 collective. The band comprises musicians from London, Berlin and Melbourne and aims to continue working with musicians in different countries, to release on their own label Energy Exchange Records.
30/70 fam and longtime friend Allysha Joy jumps onboard for this single, recorded during a spontaneous session one night in Naarm. It sizzles positivity and a sense of unity in a natural and effortless collab, as Allysha shares:
Brighter Star is about surrounding yourself with people you love, people you respect, the ones you look to for joy and inspiration, people that bring you hope and keep you searching to find that light within yourself.
Brighter Star featuring Allysha Joy is released 9th August 2023. Stream and pre-save here.
The debut album Energy Exchange Records Vol 1 is due for release September 8th on vinyl and digital formats. You can already catch Oscar Jerome on the band’s debut single Lime Green Skies, and King (Eric) Owusu from Jemba Groove on Obana (Zeitgeist 808 Remix).
