Mourning [A] BLKstar is a multi-generational, gender- and genre-non-conforming collective of Black culture dedicated to sharing stories and songs about America's unfolding apocalypse. Their music blends live instrumentation with hip-hop production, creating sonic frequencies that illuminate the African Diaspora. Founded in Cleveland, the US-based Afrofuturist collective continues to tour their music globally across Europe and the US, playing festivals such as Crossing Borders in Berlin with Lonnie Holley, Big Ears Festival, and Le Guess Who? in Utrecht.
