Full program notes

sounds of autumn improv brings together 4 long-time collaborators in a new configuration: brunson on keys & vocals, Franky Payne on electric guitar, Mel Chanté on spoken word & vocals, & N'kosi Wyands on congas. the group will explore sounds of healing soul music that borrow from the traditions of jazz, soul, and spoken word poetry. for newcomers, healing soul music has been described as 'a warm hug', 'just what i needed after a long day', 'deeply moving & spiritual'.


Historical context

i grew up in the church where music is (can be) from the soul & of the soul. the tradition of soul music, jazz music, stretch music, and improvisation have many intersections in the gospel music environments of my roots.
