Flamingosis’”Better Will Come Tour” With The Bodega Groove Collective
Brooklyn-based artist and producer Aaron Velasquez, known by his stage name Flamingosis, is gearing up for his highly anticipated “Better Will Come Tour.” The tour accompanies the release of his upcoming studio album, and fans can expect an incredible fusion of soul, funk, jazz, hip-hop, and electronic music from the creative project. Flamingosis recently dropped the second single from the album, titled “Nebula Gazer,” accompanied by a captivating animated visualizer by Space Dawg.
“Nebula Gazer,” released on March 14, captivates listeners with a catchy funk riff and foot-stomping bassline.. Flamingosis‘ unique sound has gained him a dedicated following, and fans eagerly await the release of his new studio album, “Better Will Come,” later this spring.
