Daylight Curfew – an LA/NY audiovisual label – is proud to announce the release of BCWTIOT this July 9th – the debut full-length from Brooklyn experimental soul outfit, Ehka. The group is comprised of singer/songwriter Thimali Kodikara and production duo Devang Shah & DJ Jad1.

Five years in the making, Ekha and BCWTIOT surfaced from a long friendship. Considering themselves more as family, the trio set out to create a record that could feel simultaneously raw, soulful and refined, but also represent their journey together. The album’s overall sound was meticulously crafted for a narrative that would transition from wildly exciting, to deeply personal and introspective.

Each song has been named for a friend that influenced the record physically, emotionally or spiritually. BCWTIOT is the product of growth and change.

The ‘rockets and feathers’ effect: Inflation eases but grocery bills do not

Economics has a term for what U.S. grocery prices have done in recent years: rockets and feathers. Rockets, because the cost of food eaten at home zoomed up in the aftermath of the pandemic.
