The "psychedelic afrobeat collective" Golden Dawn Arkestra. I lived in Austin and saw flyers for these guys all the time. Missed their show at SXSW. Totally wild and I'm sure the costumes and imagery aren't just innocent jaded hipsters trying to be edgy. They're too well done and elaborate. Some definite occult magic happening I'm sure. But I don't know enough about them.

Golden Dawn Arkestra is an Austin psychedelic afrobeat collective. Their name is an allusion to the Sun Ra Arkestra. Being heavily influenced by Sun Ra, the band is in the same vein, stylistically, frequently introducing costumes and an aesthetic in their performance that is reminiscent of Sun Ra's eclectic music and unorthodox lifestyle and theatrics. The group utilizes instrumentation that includes horns, percussion, synthesizers, vibraphone, and bass clarinet.

Uhm, this is crazy. Sun Ra was a member of the Knights of Pythias. Just like Schumer and Wiener https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1627391
