Concert highlights from renowned jazz singer Carmen Lundy, recorded live at this year's We Out Here festival, plus drummer and producer Kassa Overall shares his inspirations.
Julian Joseph presents concert highlights from leading jazz vocalist Carmen Lundy, live at the year’s We Out Here festival. Over the course of her four-decade spanning career, Carmen has continued to captivate audiences with her versatile and soulful tone, which has been likened to that of Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan. As well as being a prolific composer, Carmen has worked with jazz heavyweights such as Thad Jones, Kenny Kirkland, Geri Allen and Robert Glasper. Here she performs music from her latest album, Fade to Black, accompanied her band which features some of jazz's most exciting musicians.
Also in the programme, future-facing American drummer, producer, and rapper Kassa Overall shares his inspirations, including a track by jazz luminary Yusef Lateef that speaks to the power of embracing simplicity and sensitivity within music.
