Vinyl EP pressing. 2017 release. Stono Echo is a duo comprised of Paten Locke on the beats and scratches + Jay Myztroh on vocals, keys and tenor sax. Their name, content and sound invoke the spirit of the 1739 Stono Rebellion, the largest African insurrection in the mainland British Colonies. Their debut album, Black Diamonds is both a rousing call to action and thoughtful reflection on the American experience as a person of color. From the blue-collar anthem, 'Workin' to the interstellar introspective, 'Outer Limits', Stono Echo's Black Diamonds is a rugged blend of R&B, hip hop and soul. Think of it as cosmic gospel.
