Golden Browne are Columbia Nights (John E Daise, Jason “BrotherSpanky”
Edwards, Hayling) and Jenna Camille from Washington D.C.
This is only their second single (released 6 Aug 2021), their other "My Mama Said" was released last month, but they have a self-titled 'debut' album due on 17 Sep 2021. There is also another 'album' from them ("Bright Moments") released last year but each track is only 1 min long so I assume it's some sort of sampler/demo?.
They state in the video description that "“Erasure” is a love letter to our village, which remains vibrant despite the forces that would have us disappear. We demand to be seen and will not be erased".
It's a protest song about 'gentrification' of their area (i.e. the process by which a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, attracting new businesses and often displacing current inhabitants in the process).
I can't help but be reminded of Soul II Soul's 90s sound from listening to this!
