Cubic Zirconia were one of the most dynamic bands in late ’00s, post-everything New York City. Tiombe Lockhart, Nick Hook and Daoud Sturdivant blended elements of house, R&B and experimental electronics to make what Dazed & Confused called, “hyped-up, sexually-charged club music that is raw, unblinkered and very fresh…the real deal.” After several self-released singles and videos, the trio’s Fool’s Gold debut Follow Your Heart captured the band at their peak, featuring sweaty, polyrythmic rave-ups and guest appearances from Dam Funk, Drop The Lime and Bilal.
