Col. Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit will regroup this summer for a tour featuring Hampton, guitarist Jimmy Herring, bassist Oteil Burbridge and drummer Jeff Sipe, along with keyboardist Matt Slocum. In anticipation of these dates the group has created a video series to explore the history of the band. Today we premiere the initial video, which explores the group’s formative era. As previously reported, Relix will be presenting ARU’s upcoming tour dates, which can be found below.
