Description
– The Analog Vault // Essential Listening –
The late, great Jaimie Branch was one of the most inventive American jazz trumpeters of the modern era. From cross-pollinations with artists as diverse as William Parker, Matana Roberts, TV on the Radio, Spoon, Madlib and Talib Kweli; to her stellar work in Chicago and New Yorks progressive jazz scenes – Branchs open-minded, improvisational style could never be boxed into any particular genre.
Nowhere is her innovation more apparent than on Branchs marvellous debut album as a bandleader on International Anthem Recording Co. Released in 2017, Fly or Die is a record of unconventional musicality that blends Branchs disposition for free jazz with strains of R&B, calypso, indie rock and classical. This compact and textured 35-minute suite is the ideal introduction to Branchs eccentric, boundary-pushing genius. – The Analog Vault
