It also signals a new beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cFlesh and Soul\u201d is a four-track collection of introspective grooves and hypnotic rhythms. The title track moves with a melancholic pulse, intimate yet cinematic in scope. Also featured is \u201cMood Swing (Principles of Rhythm),\u201d a track that kicked off the year for BALTHVS with a signature fusion of laid-back psych textures and disco-tinged momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI feel the future is shrouded in uncertainty,\u201d says&nbsp;Balthazar, the band\u2019s founding guitarist and creative lead. \u201cBut I cope through the discipline of work.

Following five years of non-stop touring and standout festival appearances &#8211; including&nbsp;Outside Lands, Electric Forest, Lollapalooza Chile &amp; Argentina, and&nbsp;SXSW&nbsp;&#8211; BALTHVS are set to expand their live presence across North America this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&#8217;ll join genre-blending funk pioneers&nbsp;Lettuce&nbsp;for a run of U.S. dates, followed by select autumn shows supporting&nbsp;My Morning Jacket.

Their sound fuses the spirit of 70s psychedelia with funk, Latin rhythms, and ambient texture. Inspired by artists like Santana, Khruangbin, Thievery Corporation, and The Grateful Dead, BALTHVS create music that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking \u2014 a guitar-driven psychedelic funk rock experience that is unmistakably their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the heart of the group is Balthazar Aguirre, a self-taught guitarist who started down his musical path after a near death rock climbing accident. The incident opened his eyes to his true passion \u2013 music \u2013 driving him to leave behind his life as a lawyer and form Balthvs. He is joined by fellow musicians and funk enthusiasts&nbsp;Vanessa Mu\u00f1oz, the bassist, and Santiago Lizcano, the drummer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Known for their prolific output and ever changing setlists, BALTHVS maintains a steady release schedule &#8211; often recording full tracks in single takes.
