We come in peace. Golden Dawn Arkestra continues to spread a message of love, light & tolerance in the hope that Earth beings can someday live in unity, having learned to love one another despite their many differences.
To aid in this purpose, Golden Dawn Arkestra conducts extra-dimensional experiments involving space and time travel through the use of sound and movement. Their followers delight in these rituals; all bear witnesses to their higher selves and joyously bask in the eternal light that joins us all as one. The Arkestra ’s theatrical visuals inspired by Sun Ra Arkestra are enriched further by appearances from various dancers who, like the musicians, are adorned in shimmering garments reminiscent of intergalactic kingdoms of yore.
Inspired to exuberance by ritualistic practices such as processions, chanting, and the power of the music itself, the audience falls into spellbound frenzies. Golden Dawn Arkestra invites you to join in their cosmic explorations in the hopes that you too may experience the ecstatic joy of drifting upon the ever-loving rays of RA.
I oddly always feel like I'm in a cult when I see them play. Come and join us, the ship is leaving, the time is now! Love it, they will melt your face.Golden Dawn Arkestra was the main act at Dreamland Dripping Springs with guests Darkbird, Alex Maas, and Viben & The Submersibles. They continue across the United States with the last stop at the Tulips FTW in Fort Worth, Texas on October 23, 2021.
One of the weirdest yet most intrinsically rewarding shows I have ever seen in my life. I was constantly in a flux between the thoughts: "What is this, I don't get it, I think I want to leave" and "Holy goodness, it all makes sense, and this is the most perfect magical disco funk dance gathering I have ever been a part of and I never want to leave."
Surprising, challenging, frightening, and enlightening. Ecstasy, confusion, elation, and revelation. Check them out and see for yourself.
Dreamland is an outdoor entertainment and arts venue that features the world’s most extreme miniature golf course, four premium, weather-protected pickleball courts and two state of the art music stages for incredible acts playing to audiences large and small.
