OKP Premiere: The Rooks Unveil Another Soulful Cut w/ "Intermission (Wires)"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

First Look alum The Rooks got us hooked to their smooth and soulful sonics back in September when they graced us with the lead-off cut from their forthcoming Wires EP. Today we have the pleasure of premiering yet another offering from the soon-to-be project with the six-piece ensemble's latest single "Intermission (Wires)" off the EP. It's bright, choppy and heavily instrumental soul stuff that'll either make you wanna move or hit the couch and commence the evening's air blessing, but that's a win-win as far as I'm concerned. While there's no date on the new album as of right now, the fellas will be at Arlene's Grocery in NYC tonight for the second installment of their residency, no doubt the perfect ground to test out some new joints. So go peep the live show if you're a local and spin their latest joint "Intermission (Wires)" below. Keep it locked for all thinks Rooks and check out their Bandcamp for some more funk.
