Re-press of the sold-out 2024 album.

For the album, she invited over 30 artists from various disciplines to a ritual gathering in Houston. Accordingly, the resulting album features numerous contributors, including renowned musicians such as esperanza spalding, Vijay Iyer, Shabaka Hutchings, Immanuel Wilkins, and Peter Sellars.
