"Funky Feng Shui was the first song I started writing for the Crazy Times record,” says Hagar. “We recorded just the two verses I had written for the first Lockdown Sessions. When we got in the studio, David Cobb loved this song, so we finished it and it made the record.
“The video was a blast because the Director kept screaming ‘Just remember there's gonna be a 50 foot woman stepping over you guys while you're performing’ – ha ha! I love this song and this video is more fun than a frog in a glass of milk. And I love you all. Enjoy!"
“Funky Feng Shui” follows the album’s title track and a cover of the Elvis Costello classic, “Pump It Up”, as the third and latest preview to the Red Rocker’s new studio record with The Circle, which features Vic Johnson on guitar, Michael Anthony on bass, and Jason Bonham on drums.
Due September 30, the band recorded the follow-up to 2019’s “Space Between” with producer Dave Cobb at the historic RCA Studio A in Nashville, TN.
Hagar & The Circle are currently playing dates across the US, and after the series wraps up in Sacramento, CA on October 1, the singer will celebrate his 75th birthday at his annual week of Birthday Bash concerts at his Cabo Wabo Cantina in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
“Crazy Times” will be available in multiple formats, including CD, digital and streaming, with vinyl due for release on October 28.
