Galactic are thrilled to share the blistering feminist anthem “Touch Get Cut (feat. Erica Falls)”, from their forthcoming album Already Ready Already due out February 8th, 2019 on Galactic's own Tchoup-Zilla Records through Thirty Tigers. “Touch, touch get cut / Back off me daddy leave the girl alone / Vixen sistas rolling in my crew / Rusty switch pointed dead at you” sings Falls as a warning to any “drunken fools” shooting “slick lines” and working on “borrowed time”.  The new single follows the release of “Going Straight Crazy (feat. Princess Shaw)” described by Relix as sounding like 'an homage to Sharon Jones and Daptone Records,' and the previously released “Clap Your Hands feat. Miss Charm Taylor”, which The New York Times lauded as “a euphoric three-minute New Orleans funk romp from one of the city's long-running bands.”

Today Galactic release “Going Straight Crazy feat. Princess Shaw”, the newest single from their forthcoming album Already Ready Already due out February 8th, 2019 on Galactic's own Tchoup-Zilla Records through Thirty Tigers.

Miss Charm Taylor”, which The New York Times lauded as “a euphoric three-minute New Orleans funk romp from one of the city's long-running bands.” Galactic already have massive plans for 2019 beyond the release of their new album.
