World music act Zap Mama is slated to release its next album, Supermoon, August 7 in North America. Zap Mama's Marie Daulne explains that the record's title comes from our current fascination with superstars and celebrities. Guests on the album include legendary Afrobeat drummer Tony Allen, Meshell Ndegeocello, Michael Franti, and David Gilmour. In the same month that Supermoon comes out, Zap Mama will begin a U.S. tour. Follow on after the jump for those dates.
