Turkuaz’s “Live From Higher Ground” series continued yesterday with the release of an improvisation-heavy performance of “Electric Habitat” from the band’s 2014 record, Future 86! The live video capitalizes on the glowing harmonies, funky grooves, and exemplifies the true tastefulness in musicality that Turkuaz is known for. Check out the new video here:

This release comes hot on the heels of this past weekend’s Red Rocks performance, where members of Turkuaz recently joined Umphrey’s McGee during their two headlining sets, of course, after dazzling the crowd to a set of their own. Members of Turkuaz joined UM during The Beatles’ “With A Little Help From My Friends” and the UM debut of the Talking Heads classic, “Take Me To The River,” among others.
Luckily for us, there’s still one video left in the series! Mark your calendars and plan on checking out the last video this Thursday at noon ET on the band’s official YouTube channel.
