about

The track begins with the voice of Irving ‘Honey’ Banister, a Mardi Gras Indian who sings in the group Cha Wa. Here’s Nation Beat’s Scott Kettner to give the context to that intro, and how it relates to The Royal Chase

“[Irving ‘Honey’ Banister] discusses the metaphor of sewing an Indian suit, the process of working to keep his culture alive and the dismay that younger generations are not keeping the flame burning due to their lack of discipline and focus. They don’t have time to sew with their faces in their cellphones and other distractions.

This is really the overriding theme for the album. Every day, we wake up with a mission to accomplish many personal goals. Some of them are small and easy to attain while others are big picture goals that take years and maybe even a lifetime to accomplish, but they require discipline and focus. These big goals, which seem to stay just a little bit in front of us, as we continue running after them is what I call THE ROYAL CHASE. It’s that thing burning inside, driving us to do what we love simply because it’s what we’re put on Earth to do. I believe all of us have an internal Royal Chase – if we listen internally and focus, we know our mission, our goal, and we get running after it but is just out of reach. It’s The Royal Chase that gets us out of bed every day!”
