Datcha Mandala: new video "Koda" out now

Heavy/blues rock unit DÄTCHA MANDALA share artwork, track listing and a new song off their upcoming album 'Koda' - set to release this April 26th 2024 via DM Prod, Take It Easy and Discos Macarras. The new video, which is named after the album, is a veritable feast for ears and eyes!

French three-piece DÄTCHA MANDALA's third album draws inspiration from the vibrant Brit rock scene. With its massive tasty production, 'Koda' is made up of rock hits powered by underlying Ghost or Royal Blood influences. New video "Koda" was directed by Tony Horel, it highlights the incoherence of political choices when it comes to ecology. Stormy imagery, incandescent riffage and shattering drums dot a devastating single.

Say the band: "This song deals with existential questioning and questions the priorities of humans regarding the space conquest, the blindness caused by religion and nationalism, at the expense of our planet and Life in general. Aren’t we going to die, at a time or an other ? Couldn’t we use the short time we have here to share, create and generate virtuous circles for everyone on this beautiful planet ?"

DÄTCHA MANDALA's new album 'Koda' arrives this April 26th 2024 on DM Prod and Take It Easy, at the following formats: vinyl, CD, streaming and download. A coloured limited edition will be released on Spanish imprint Discos Macarras Records. The album was recorded and mixed by Charles de Schutter at ICP and Rec’N’Roll studios in Brussel, Belgium. Mastering by Jett Galindo (Neil Young, Pink Floyd, Nile Rodgers, Paul McCartney) at the Bakery Studio, Los Angeles, USA.

French bold three-piece DÄTCHA MANDALA blend blues rock, heavy rock and Brit rock. Highlighted by front man Nicolas Sauvey's stunning Robert Plant-esque vocals, their riffs draw inspiration from the musical effervescence of the seventies as much as from the dynamism of the current rock and metal scenes.

Dätcha Mandala's live shows are nothing but overflowing and communicative energy. They already performed more than 666 shows over Europe and North America, including a memorable gig as opening act of Les Insus (ex-Telephone) in 2017 at the Stade de France arena in front of several thousands of people, as well as an apparence at Hellfest 2022. Their strong presence on stage echoes an intense creative bubbling.

In 2016, Dätcha Mandala ink a deal with Mrs Red Sound - the record label created by stoner rock band Mars Red Sky - to release their EP 'Anâhata': a pure blues rock collection peppered with delighting psychedelia. They return to the studio the following year to record their debut album 'Rokh' with English producer Clive Martin (Queen, Tom Yorke, The Cure) using a full analogue process. The release of their sophomore album 'Hara' in June 2020 marks the trio's willingness to express concerns about politics and ecology. This album particularly showcases the richness of their musical influences.

Dätcha Mandala release a tribute EP to the 70s rock frenzy called 'The Last Drop' in May 2022 on Mrs Red Sound, with the behind-the-scenes video documentary 'In Studio With Dätcha Mandala'.
