Sun Ra Arkestra
The Sun Ra Arkestra is an American jazz group formed in the mid-1950s and originally led by keyboardist/composer Sun Ra until his death in 1993. Sun Ra, and the Arkestra, are considered pioneers of Afrofuturism. Since 1995 the Arkestra has been led by saxophonist Marshall Allen, a member since 1958. Most recent lineups consist of more than one dozen members. They were nominated for a Grammy Award in 2026.
The Arkestra draws from a range of musical genres: swing, rock 'n' roll, Chicago blues, improvisation, and electronic. When the Arkestra performs, the band members wear Afrofurist-inspired outfits dominated by colorful capes and headdresses.
