About

- The Analog Vault // Essential Listening -

A queenpin of London’s jazz renaissance, multi award-winning British tenor saxophonist and composer Nubya Garcia can be found at her most virtuous in this much anticipated debut album released on Concord Records, under the iconic Concord Jazz imprint. Born to parents from Trinidad and Guyana, Source traces her musical heritage by melding Garcia’s formal foundations in jazz classicism with dubstep, reggae, cumbia, calypso, hip-hop, soul and more.

This album is a stunning introduction to Garcia’s abundant talent - evident as she applies her anguid and sumptuous playing style as a needle to weave together sonic threads from the African diaspora. Aided by producer Kwes (Damon Albarn, Solange, Bobby Womack), Garcia’s graceful fusion of tradition and modernity is richly melodic exploration of collectivism and ancestry. — The Analog Vault
