Wide ranging in it's themes, the album's subjects are drawn from encounters with objects in the Arts Bank. Taking us from the rock hewn churches of Ethiopia, to the journeys of Black Pioneers Westward, from Miss New York Transit Queen 1957, to how the sunset appears from Harriet Jacobs' loophole. 'Black Rainbows' explores black femininity, spell work, inner space/outer space, time collapse and ancestors, the erasure black childhood and music as a vessel for transcendence.
